Time warp no more…Tim Curry, RIP

[Pdaddy1978]

And the sadness continues......
Another rough week.
Would Rocky Horror been anywhere close without his Frank? The songs? The look? The ATTITUDE?
Hellllll No!

Already there bro.


Frank Beard, Dolly, Tim.


The young actress before that..........

I made the mistake of reading this :

Really sad to loose Dolly, Tim, Robert Duvall, and many others; but they had a pretty good innings.

Conversely, that little deaf girl from the most recent King Kong vs Godzilla movie, Donnie Darko's little sister (came to a truly shocking end), and Hayden Panettiere, all taken way before time.

Wow. Midnight showings of Rocky Horror at the Biograph Theater in Richmond VA were legendary when I was a teen. RIP Tim.

I watched Muppets treasure Island with my son earlier this week. He was Long John Silver. A great role and he's my favorite character in the movie. RIP

When I was a young teen in L.A., there was a movie review of RHPS. The clip they chose was the part where he's coming down the elevator and you hear and see his platform shoe going up and down. The elevator lands and he turns around and...Welcome!

Mind. Blown. Parents...freaked.

An incredibly versatile actor.
A tale of two doctors.

Who else could run the gambit from playing Dr. Frank-N-Furter in Rocky Horror to playing Dr. Petrov in The Hunt For Red October?

RIP Mr. Curry. Please give Dolly our regards when you get up there.

the best. Frank en furter and Darkness are 2 of the best performances on film. I did both for Halloween as a teenager. Trick or treating as Frank as a 13 year old looney was…an experience.

RIP Sam Neill, as well.

RIP Sam Neill, as well.

Yeah, he scared the heck out of me in "Event Horizon." No wonder there are no good movies in production now, all the talent has gone to another universe, somewhere.

Tim Curry, ‘Rocky Horror Picture Show’ Star, Dies at 80

Tim Curry, who soared to fame in the ‘70s as the flamboyant star of “The Rocky Horror Picture Show,” died on Tuesday in Los Angeles. He was 80.

Besides his acting career, he had a separate sort-of hit with this…

"I Do The Rock" is still one of my all time favorite tunes. Thanks, Tim! As is "Jolene" by Dolly. If there's a heaven they're doing a double bill.
