Jack Palance is dead


Actor Jack Palance is dead at 87.

I always liked him. When some of us Steven King fans were having a bull session one night in seminary, we agreed that he would have been the ideal Randal Flagg in what was then a hypothetical movie version of The Stand.

Didn't happen. But Palance was a unique and memorable character actor whose passing will justly be mourned by many.

Not since Boris Karloff has such an gentlemanly and gentle man been so able to scare the living daylights out of us.
