He was my grandfather, guess this is how I found out. Can’t say I’m too happy finding out this way, fuck this website

I'm sorry for your loss. If it's any consolation I absolutely adore him as a fan and for his contributions to film both minor and major. Literally one of my heroes.

I suspected as much but it's kinda rude to question someone about something like that. So uh, good trick? You're a real Ashton Kutcher style prankster.

I love Little Shop of Horrors so I'm sorry to hear this. May your grandfather rest in peace, CrackBurger.

RIP to a legend. Go watch Space Raiders (1983), a little Star Wars ~~rip-off~~ tribute with a little budget but a lot of heart. Produced by Roger Corman.

RIP to a HUGE ONE. I can't say I have close to all of his movies, but I'm working on it. I love a trash movie and he could pull off some amazing trash at times. The original non musical Little Shop of Horros and Dementia 13 come to mind. Low budget GOAT and had the voice of cinmon maple butter.

He did what he loved, making art that so many other people also loved. How many people can make that claim?

[-] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 1 points 3 months ago

He lived my dream. Making a shitload of dumb little movies that were cheap and crap production but there was an effort to make them still be movies. I love that kind of combination of not giving a fuck and really giving a fuck. It's something lost in movies in general now where you could tell the people behind it really only cared about some aspects and others were total blind spots or they just didn't care enough to make it as good. Also the Poe movies with Vincent Price rule.

Seen his name in so many credits over the decades. RIP legend

I thought he died many years ago.
