Rome, Italy — Italian actor Sandro Dori, who played supporting roles in about a hundred films, has died at a hospital here Feb. 15. He was 82. He also worked in theater and did voice work.
Fans of Italian movies might remember his role as Dr. Zucconi in “Il Prof. Dott. Guido Tersilli Primario Della Clinica Villa Celeste Convenzionata Con Le Mutue.” MSTies will remember his uncredited role as Stud in the movie in episode 1013- DIABOLIK.

That Stud is not coming. RIP
Oh, dear! It sounds like he had a decent life and an illustrious career, working with a number of well-known directors including Fellini, but my first thought on seeing this was of St. Peter, looking into the distance and saying, “Is that Stud…coming?” And St. Peter looks exactly like Adolfo Celi.
“Is that Stud…coming” is one of the best “stingers” of any MST3K episode.
“You see, Stud, you brought bad news!”
RIP, sir. You are part of a legend.
