Bugger.

RIP Sir Christopher, and thank you, thank you very much for some fantastic performances. A true giant of a man in both stature and stage.

My thoughts exactly. That's very sad news...

Oberon · 06-11-15, 07:02 AM

Still, at least he's been reunited with Vincent Price and Peter Cushing. There'll be one heck of a knees up in heaven tonight!

but I particularly enjoyed him as the villainous Compte de Rochefort in the classic Three(and four)Musketeers . He joins the equally memorable Oliver Reed (Athos). He will be missed.

RIP Sir Christopher Lee.

I don't know why there is so much fiction about when there are great stories like his to be told.

STEED · 06-11-15, 02:50 PM

The last of the big three, farewell Sir Christopher Lee.

RIP good sir.

RIP Sir Christopher a sad loss best actor ever to play Dracula.

Few actors can lay claim to a resume as vast as his; very, very few have had a claim to a resume extending over six decades. This may well be the end of an era in British acting; I can't think offhand of anyone else with the same pedigree in acting still active or alive today. Ninety-odd years is a very good, long life and Sir Christopher filled those years with much more than a lifetime's experiences. We were fortunate he allowed us to come along for the ride...

RIP, sir, and many thanks...

The man had a full life. I hope he died with little pain and some dignity. He deserved nothing less.

RIP

I greatly enjoyed his movies.

RIP

You were my first intro to horror movies.

Oh I remember it so well, my parents have sent me and my little sisters to bed I must have been around 9-10 years of age.

My door was connected to the living room and my door went into my room.

Opened it very slowly not more than I could se our TV and there he was Mr Count Dracula... saw some of the movie.

I couldn't sleep that night or the following nights..

Today I love horror movies.
