Has appeared in two films about serial killers: Manhunter and The Hard Way. Manhunter was based on the novel Red Dragon. The original climax of the novel featured the villain, Francis Dolarhyde, faking his own death by killing a gas station attendant named Arnold Lang, placing his dentures inside the corpse, and burning the body in a fire. Though this was changed for the film, it is interesting the note that the victim's last name was Lang, just like Stephen's. Michael J. Fox's character in The Hard Way was named Nick Lang.
