There are several ways to do this.

The quick and dirty way is to kill the actor on collision and the spawn a no moving graphic version in the same place. This has the advantage that there is very little code and it can be changed easily later for a more sophisticated solution. The disadvantage is that it will put a serious dint into the games speed.

The more sophisticated solution maybe to halt or reverse the motion vector of the actor at the time of collision.

Have you tried setting both actor's restitution attribute to 0 ?
