Always remember you fondly for Heathers...


Thanks for the pleasure...

Well, except for the remake of "Apes", but I'm sure the good stuff you did will keep you out of hell.

This very much upsets me. He was a very kind, charming man. Always willing to take time out to talk to his fans.

Little known fact: Shadix also put a curse on Will Smith during the halloween episode of the Fresh Prince.

Indeed. And related to that: how fat do you have to be to need a scooter at 58?

He was a farking freak in Sleepwalkers. He was that good an actor, but he was very recognizable as well.

That is a awful way to go out of this world, you're reaching for your Capt. Crunch, fall out of your motorized kart and crack your head open on the kitchen floor. Horrible.

Aw, hell. That's sad.

He was definitely one of the more memorable character actors, even if many didn't know his name.

my brother and I used to have a stupid inside joke where one of us would write "MAUVE" on a piece of paper and then hand it to the other, and the recipient would say solemnly, "You read my mind." "I did?"

Damn my inside jokes and family are lame.

Poor guy, that sounds awful. RIP movie dude.

His house burned down a couple of years ago. He reportedly told firefighters "I've lost my dream." Sad.

Here's his official website -- before you enter, there's a note there from his family announcing his death and giving information about his memorial service.

Looks like a really cool site with regular updates from him -- I only find out about cool sites like this when they die, damn it.

Saw him in a episode of Cheers where he plays a chauvinist douche. He was quite good, and even ended up nailing Carla. I'll miss that guy.

/So much for an awesome Beetlejuice sequel.

Didn't know anything about this guy, despite being a big fan of Nightmare, so I thought maybe the headline was a joking reference to this character (I know now that it's not the one he voiced):
