Farewell, Dick Miller

Dick Miller was one of the best and most prolific character actors of the second half of the twentieth century--a favorite of Roger Corman and Joe Dante who appeared in so many movies it is ridiculous to try listing even the favorites. He rarely got a starring role (Corman's A Bucket of Blood was a rare one), but his mere momentary presence brought any movie to life instantly. His rough mug, gruff but lovable demeanor were, and absurdly long resume earned him a documentary tribute called That Guy Dick Miller in 2014 that is well worth seeking out. 

Daly, Dick Miller died today at the ripe age of 90. His presence in future movies will be missed.
