RIP BO HOPKINS 1938-2022

A great character actor has passed away.

Bo Hopkins appeared in hundreds of TV shows and movies in his 54 year career.

From "The Virginian" to "Gunsmoke", "Wild Wild West", "Mod Squad" and many others, Hopkins was a very familiar face on the small screen. He also made a lot of memorable motion pictures including "White Lightning", "Nightmare At Noon", "Tentacles" and "American Graffitti".

I remember him most from the 1984 horror film entitled "Mutant" in which he played a small town Sheriff that had to fight off an invasion of zombie monsters createwd in a lab.

In his every role he brought a different kind of light to the character. They just don't make actors like Hopkins anymore. He passed away on May 28th, 2022 at the age of 84.
