Thomas Kent Carter (December 18, 1956 – January 9, 2026) was an American actor. In movies, he is most known for his comedic performances, such as the street-smart Chester in Seems Like Old Times and the karaoke-singing Iceman in Ski Patrol. He is also known for playing slightly nervous characters, such as the rollerskating chef Nauls in John Carpenter's The Thing, as well as the unfortunate National Guard, Cribbs in Walter Hill's Southern Comfort.
