Actor Anton Yelchin was taken from the world too soon. He died on Sunday at the age of 27 in an automobile accident. Yelchin starred in blockbusters like Star Trek and Terminator, but he was also an avid supporter of cult directors, acting in films by Jim Jarmusch and Paul Schrader. He most recently starred in the horror film Green Room along with Sir Patrick Stewart. Yelchin was the son of Soviet figure skaters and was raised in the U.S. He grew up going to punk shows and even had a garage punk band called The Hammerheads. Yelchin's own car killed him when it rolled down his driveway and pinned him to a brick wall.
