RIP ANGUS SCRIMM 1926-2016

The actor best known for playing "The Tall Man" has passed away.

Scrimm played "The Tall Man" in the original "PHANTASM" and then continued the role thru the third sequel.

The impression he made on me back in 1979 was one I will never forget. Scrimm had a very long career and also played in such movies as "VAMPIRELLA", "CHOPPING MALL", "SCREAM BLOODY MURDER" and many more.

His acting career started in 1972 in a movie entitled "SWEET KILL" under his real name of Rory Guy. Scrimm was 89 and he leaves behind a rich legacy for horror movie fans.
