[Jay Jay]

RIP, an extraordinary actor and human being!

Think that sums up the man - amazingly talented and humble to the end. A true Gentleman.

 

[mhayes86]

Absolutely loved Christopher Lee's movies, and his collaboration in the power metal scene. He will sorely be missed by me. : (

 

[Plasmid]

Truly a great man who lived a fulfilled life. RIP.

 

[Polk]

You cannot kill Dracula.

 

[Qvoth]

just found out, rip

 

[Melchiah]

I grew up being scared shitless by these guys! Awesome actors with amazing craft. So sad

RIP, Christopher, you were an absolute gentleman and legend and your legacy will be long remembered.

Same here. The Hammer films of the 80's were my childhood favorites.

He, and his many roles, will live on in our memories and imagination.

 

[jph139]

One of the last horror icons gone... but he definitely had a long life worth living. RIP.

 

[thesoapster]

Wow...what a life. RIP

 

[Jigorath]

The world just lost a great man.

RIP

 

[Gnome]

Guess I'm watching Lord of the Rings tomorrow.

 

[Yawnier]

Damn great actor, not many actors left from his generation sadly. rip.

 

[Blader]

Time for a Hammer horror movie marathon, I think. Seriously, they're great fun and more of you young folks should watch them. Lee played all the classic roles, including the Mummy, Frankenstein's Monster, and of course Dracula many times.

I'm definitely building some Hammer flicks into the GAF 31 days of horror marathon this year. I haven't seen any of them!

 

[Night Angel]

Aww, dammit.

 

[Butt_Sanchez]

Damn, this is some sad news. My heart goes out to his family.

 

[Dictator93]

I SHED BLOOD OF SAXON MEN

I SHED THE BLOOD OF THE SAXON MEN

I SHED IT AT VERDEN!

I SHED THE BLOOD OF SAXON MEN!

I SHED THE BLOOD OF 4000 SAXON MEN!

So long good sire

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Damn. RIP Dracula.

 

[Hours Left]

A true legend. RIP.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

R.I.P. good sir.

 

[Altazor]

fuck. FUCK.

RIP Sir Christopher. You lived an amazing life and you leave behind an amazing legacy, too. We'll miss you.

 

[Kaladin]

Here is Christopher Lee doing an awesome version of Ghost Riders In The Sky

 

[tattooed_dwarf]

Very sad news indeed, but on bright side, he lived long and rich life. That man has experienced so much and have done so many memorable things that I have huge respect for him. Farewell Christopher.

 

[Mutanthands]

Rest in peace, good sir. What a life! No regrets, I would think.

 

[DrForester]

Well that's sad news to wake up to.

What a man!

 

[VaultBoy101]

I'm definitely building some Hammer flicks into the GAF 31 days of horror marathon this year. I haven't seen any of them!

Excellent idea. I'd be happy to help with lists, recommendations, or whatever else if needed.

 

[derFeef]

Wow...

 

[esai]

RIP

 

[SpaceHorror]

The greatest Dracula.

RIP

 

[The Elite]

Wow...

I always loved that.

 

[jett]

He lived a full life. RIP.

 

[btrboyev]

Respect to you Mr. Lee.

 

[Kinyou]

What an amazing guy he was.

 

[GavinUK86]

RIP you crazy metalhead

 

[Violence Jack]

I'm bummed today because of this. He was a legend, and an icon. My first exposure to him was The Wicker Man as Lord Summerisle, The Whip and The Body, and Horror of Dracula. Guess I'll be whipping those out tonight. He was extremely fortunate to live such a long and fulfilling life.

RIP

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Dude lived a hell of a life it's hard to even be sad, but he will most certainly be missed. RIP.

 

[G0UJ3N]

RIP A true Gentleman and Actor!

 

[Bam]

Rest in peace you beautiful man.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Didn't he do some video game voices too? Man, he sure did do a lot of things in media.

He did Ansem the Wise. It was really, really amazing. Wanted to get my KHII signed by him I could...guess not anymore.

 

[norinrad]

93 is a pretty long and an accomplished life. May Sir Christopher RIP

RIP

The Wicker Man was also one of his own favorite roles.

 

[Hazmat]

No doubt one of the most interesting people of our time. Hell of a life. Rest in peace.

 

[Currygan]

this is one of the saddest days in my life. A true English legend, I'm genuinely crying right now

RIP Sir Christopher, you will be sorely missed

 

[vagabondarts]

Rest in Peace you wonderful legend.

 

[Toa TAK]

Seriously?! D:

Dude is a legend of mine. RIP

 

[Impulsor]

I am such a fan of this man... So sorry to see him go, but happy that he gifted us with his talent. R.I.P.

 

[Agent_Carnage]

Such a sad day. RIP my good man. Losing alot of treasures this year so sad.

 

[Mariolee]

He just seemed like one of those guys who would live forever. RIP.

 

[alfredofroylan]

Also a did a a few voice acting for movies like "The Last Unicorn"

 

[gabbo]

Wonder if he'll go the Lugosi route and be buried in Dracula costume.
RIP

 

[ElectricKaibutsu]

He was getting up there so I knew it was coming, still really sad news. That guy was the best. An amazing actor and an amazing human being.

 

[alfredofroylan]

Wonder if he'll go the Lugosi route and be buried in Dracula costume.
RIP

He hated the role, in some of the last Hamer movies he barely speaks because of the typecats.
