Oh, man. That is a bummer.

Guess I'll be re-watching some Mario Bava/Stelvio Cipriani collaborations in the near future as a small personal tribute.

It's one of those deaths where it's completely understandable because of how old they were, but tough to swallow because your brain just refuses to accept that they were indeed that old.

Exactly. I mean, when I saw him in movies as a kid, he was only... oh, about 60...

I just saw the movie for the first time recently, and on the big screen, no less! His voice was definitely unsettling.

Oh, man, that's a weird one. I mean, 95 years old, but it just seemed like he was a fixture.

Definitely one of those deaths you always knew was coming but when it arrives, you're still shocked as ever.

RIP, Stan. A true legend if there ever was one.
