Twin Peaks actors working together outside TP

Post by Agent Sam Stanley »

Hey all. Long time no see. Is anybody still alive around here?

So I was on Twitter the other night and an old board member tweeted about watching Jack Sholder's The Hidden with Kyle MacLachlan which also featured Chris Mulkey. And I remembered that I loved seeing TP actors working together outside of TP. Felt like I was watching my beloved characters in an alternate reality or something. So since I'm bored with this quarantine shit, I decided to list all the films that I can remember that featured TP actors working together (not necessarily sharing the same scene, just part of the same film). I'll probably forget many titles, so feel free to contribute below.

Great idea for a thread. All I have to add is from the world of TV; On an episode of Seinfeld, Grace Zabriskie and Warren Frost play (quite bizarrely) a husband and wife!
Recipe not my own. In a coffee cup. 3 TBS flour, 2 TBS sugar, 1.5 TBS cocoa powder, .25 TSP baking powder, pinch of salt. 3 TBS milk, 1.5 TBS vegetable oil, 1 TBS peanut butter. Add and mix each set. Microwave 1 minute 10 seconds. The cup will be hot.

Oh right, they played George Costanza's in-laws for a couple of seasons. Priceless stuff.
I believe Frances Bay and Ian Abercrombie were also on Seinfeld.

I also found this cool tool. You can basically search if 2 actors were together in a film/tv series/video game or the common people in 2 titles.

Yep, it's great. I used it to find the film Pamela Gidley did with Ray and Grace. I remember she mentioned in an interview they were shooting that film at the same time they were doing FWWM.

Lucky (2017) with Harry Dean Stanton and David Lynch.

Not sure if you’re including animation voiceovers, but Gargoyles (1994) featured Michael Horse, David Warner, Ian Buchanan, Tony Jay, Neil Dickson, and Jim Belushi.

Little Odessa, James Gray's first film from 1994, stars Tim Roth and Moira Kelly.

What I find more interesting about Silent Night Deadly Night 3 is that Laura Harring is also in it. Not Twin Peaks, but that deserves an asterisk at least!
