 Greensboro, N.C. — Prolific actor Ed Nelson, who spent decades as a leading man in movies (including several by Roger Corman) and is perhaps best known as a major player in famed nighttime soap “Peyton Place,” died here Aug. 9 of congestive heart failure. He was 85.MSTies will recall that he played Dave Randall in the movie in episode 701- NIGHT OF THE BLOOD BEAST, a caveteen in the movie in episode 315- TEENAGE CAVEMAN, George Beldridge in the movie in episode K15- SUPERDOME, a police sergeant in the movie in episode 503- SWAMP DIAMONDS and the elusive Robert Denby in the movie in episode 814- RIDING WITH DEATH. He also helped make the costumes for episode 406- ATTACK OF THE GIANT LEECHES, in which he was supposed to appear, but was called away for another role before filming started. Here’s a nice long appreciation. Thanks to Paul and Duane for the headses ups. If you should find yourself in the Philadelphia area on Friday, Aug. 15, you might want to head out to suburban Phoenixville, where the landmark Colonial Theater will be again be showing an MST3K episode at 10:15 p.m. This time it’s episode 423- BRIDE OF THE MONSTER (with short: HIRED! part 1). There will be a pre-show invention exchange contest in order to win prizes. More info here.

I’m going to expand this to allow any sort typical trailer verbiage. Such as… “A simple town in the Swiss Alps. [dun DUN] A creeping mist. [dun DUN] A cloud descends. [bwaaaaaaa] It sees you…” What’s yours? (Keep those discussion thread ideas coming!) |
