Biography: Terry Kiser was born in Council Bluffs, Iowa. Kiser first came to the TV screen as 'Dr. John Rice' on the daytime soap The Doctors. Some of his other well known roles include 'Journalist Al Craven' on the series Night Court and 'Bobby McDermott' on Good Company.

Of all of Terry Kiser's acting roles, his best known might just be one where he spends most of his time on-screen with no dialogue and hardly any movement. As 'Bernie Lomax' in the comedy Weekend at Bernie's, Kiser played an evil insurance company boss who was rubbed out, but ended up manipulated like a puppet in order to fool a mob hit man into believing he was still alive.

Info: "…Terry Kiser, on the other hand was a veteran character actor, The New Blood marking his second straight genre appearance after appearing in the 1987 horror film The Offspring (which notably starred Vincent Price and was directed by Jeff Burr of Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III infamy). Kiser would become most well known for his role in the 1989 comedy film Weekend at Bernie's, in which Kiser played the titular corpse. 'I liked playing the villain in the film because Dr. Crews was really depraved,' says the actor. 'Before, I was primarily known for my comedy roles, but ever since Friday the 13th, I've played more and more villains.'" - pg. 153, Making Friday the 13th
