Dutch actor Rutger Hauer passed away last month at the age of 75, and for 80's and 90's cult movie lovers, it was a huge loss. Kids from Generation X grew up watching the actor at either the local cineplex or on their VCR's thanks to classic films like Blade Runner, The Hitcher, Ladyhawke, Nighthawks, Blind Fury, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, and much more, while modern movie audiences may recall him from films like Batman Begins, Sin City and Hobo With A Shotgun.

On this week's episode for Smells Like Cinematic segment, co-host Damon Shell and I look back on his career, and why particularly his performance as Roy Batty in Ridley Scott's 1982 sci-fi masterpiece Blade Runner is such an indelible moment in genre cinema.
