matt_zimmerOgre from Revenge Of The Nerds. He was 71.
Fun Fact: I always said that if I were to animate Gilda And Meek, I'd use entirely a cast of unknowns. But I would have cast Donald Gibb as Louie Dawg. The guy was typecast for his entire career because of Ogre, and I think he might have jumped at the chance to play a gentle, empathetic, soft-spoken lawyer for once instead of the gnarly, loudmouthed, uncouth biker he was in every other thing he ever acted in. As least, I'd like to think so.
Gibb was probably the actual reason I made Louie so hulking in the first place.
