Holy Crap! Dexter Vs. John Lithgow!

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I love me some Dexter. Last season felt a bit... off... not bad, just off, but the just announced big baddie of Season 4 has me smiling ear to ear. John Lithgow will be playing the newest serial killer in Miami, a character named Walter Simmons who has evaded the FBI for over three decades. He's known as the Trinity Killer because his pattern is to kill in threes. If you've only seen Lithgow's comedy work this seems like a strange bit of casting, but if you're as big a fan of De Palma's BLOW OUT as I am you know how fucking awesome it is to see Lithgow embrace the darkness again. You've also got RAISING CAIN and, bear with me, SANTA CLAUS: THE MOVIE. I know that one isn't really supposed to be a horror movie, but his cackling greedy Toy Company exec in that movie scared the bejesus out of me as a kid. Who puts broken glass in a doll if not someone terribly unstable? What do you guys think of this addition to the series? I'm over the moon, personally. The Showtime original series premieres on September 27th. -Quint quint@aintitcool.com Follow Me On Twitter
