Well, another old obituary, brought to my attention by a fan on the guestbook. John Bloom died of heart failure in 1999. Dude was 7'4", and was the tallest actor ever to play Frankenstein's monster in a movie (he was 17" taller than Boris Karloff's character!). Anyhoo, here is his IMDB file, if you're curious to see what else he was in:
www.imdb.com/name/nm0089183/?fr=c2l0ZT1kZnxteD0yMHxzZz0xfGxtPTIwMHxwbj0wfHE9Sm9obiBCbG9vbXxodG1sPTF8bm09MQ__;fc=3;ft=20;fm=1
Also, according to the poster on the Guestbook, he saw a recent interview with Tom Hanks, and Tom apparently said that he would do a sequel to BP, except that "most of the cast were dead". A bit of a stretch, of course, as the only three confirmed deaths are Angela Aames, Hugh McPhillips (1920 - 1990; the minister that married Rick and Debbie), and now John Bloom.
