Everyone know how to play this?

Start: Mark Whalburg

(for all those who don't know, six degrees of Kevin Bacon is a game based on the theory that everyone is connected through a chain of six people or less, to everyone else in the world. In the game, you have to connect Kevin Bacon to another actor using the different films that they've been in, eg: Kevin Bacon was in Tremors with Fred Ward, and Fred Ward was in Naked Gun 33 1/3 with Leslie Neilson. If you wanted to go further, you could connect him to Bob Dylan, because Leslie Neilson was in Spy Hard, Weird Al Yankovich did the theme song to Spy Hard, Weird Al also did a parody song of Bob Dylan.

Mark Walberg to Gary Sinise, Ransom
Gary Sinise to Kevin Bacon, Apollo 13

Your turn, and here's a real challenge: Gene Simmons( the KISS Bassist, who did some action films in the 80's). It can be done!

Truth is, you can link any two actors in six moves or less.

Gene simmons was in "kiss meets the phantom of the park" where he was called Demon
Demons are evil
Kevin Bacon's character in Hollow man was evil!

Done!
