I just dropped by to post this:Horror icon Christopher Lee who is also known for his work on Star Wars and Lord of The Rings died Sunday morning in hosptial care. It is not said what was the cause. He was 93. Edit: Reports suggest he had respiratory issues that caused a weakened heart.

He was 93, I saw this coming when I watched the extras on the 2nd 3d Hobbit movie. He looked very frail.

Still the man lived a long life, and entertained most of us here in one way or another. I loved him in a lot of his roles. Its a big loss, but at least he lived a very long and full life.

My first exposure to Christopher Lee was as a kid with his amazing voice-acting as King Haggard in The Last Unicorn; he was my favorite Dracula, he rocked it as Saruman and was an all-round stellar actor who committed 100% to every role he played.

This is depressing as all hell - he was a wise, talented and accomplished person. We won't see his like again. :(

Jester 06-11-2015 06:12 PM

Man....time for a Hammer Dracula film marathon.

Yes he was great as King Haggard too.

RIP Dracula, Sauraman, King Haggard, Wicker Man and more.

Agreed - Hammer Dracula marathon will be on the agenda for the weekend, methinketh. Might spin Hammer's The Mummy and The Curse of Frankenstein as well, since he appeared in those.

MsMarvelDuckie 06-12-2015 02:18 AM

Like penny, I first knew him as Haggard. Big fan of the Hammer Dracula films, too. So sad to lose such a great actor. RIP, good sir.
