Goes to show you that you never should play with guns, not even on a movieset.
His voice, damn, puts Vin Diesel to shame

Pity he shot himself, imagine all the movies he could have made.
He could also have made a fortune doing voices (TV, animated movies etc) when he got older and lost his looks.
Would almost (I SAID ALMOST!) put Henda to shame!
Only positive thing is that he won't have to see the current state of affairs in the USA with BLM, Riots, Crazy Liberals etc
Erik Hexum as Dalton in Roadhouse
Even though he was insanely stupid, he was also very unlucky.He should have been declared brain dead before the accident.
"On October 12, 1984, the cast and crew of Cover Up were filming the seventh episode of the series, "Golden Opportunity," on Stage 17 of the 20th Century Fox lot. One of the scenes filmed that day called for Hexum's character to load bullets into a .44 Magnum handgun, so he was provided with a functional gun and blanks. When the scene did not play as the director wanted it to in the master shot, there was a delay in filming. Hexum became restless and impatient during the delay and began playing around to lighten the mood. He had unloaded all but one (blank) round, spun it, and—simulating Russian roulette—he put the revolver to his right temple and pulled the trigger,[7] apparently unaware of the danger.
Blanks use paper or plastic wadding to seal gunpowder into the cartridge, and this wadding is propelled from the barrel of the gun with enough force to cause injury if the weapon is fired within a few feet of the body, particularly a vulnerable spot, such as the temple or the eye. At a close enough range, the effect of the powder gasses is a small explosion, so although the paper wadding in the blank that Hexum discharged did not penetrate his skull, there was enough blunt force trauma to shatter a quarter-sized piece of his skull and propel the pieces into his brain, causing massive hemorrhaging.[2][8]
Hexum was rushed to Beverly Hills Medical Center, where he underwent five hours of surgery to repair his wounds.[8] On October 18, aged 27, six days after the accident, Hexum was declared brain dead."
So weird. I actually semi-remember this guy. The thread jogged my memory. But I was 14 when he croaked, so I don’t specifically recall much of anything about him.
He died at a good time. As another says, he was spared the era of mentally-deranged lefties working passionately to destroy Western civilization.

Is it possible for a straight guy to be attracted to men?Mezza finnoccio

I don't buy the shooting yourself with a gun-thing.
Seems like a cover-up
