RIP ROBERT TOWNE 1934-2024

First we lost Roger Corman, now a great screenwriter who worked with him.

Towne got his start writing when he worked with Corman and wrote the screenplay for "Last Woman On Earth" and he even acted in the film as one of the three leads.

He also acted in the unforgettable "Creature From The Haunted Sea" for Corman.

Towne went on to write some of the most classic movies in history including "Tomb Of Ligeia", "Chinatown", "Heaven Can Wait" and he also wrote an episode of the original Outer Limits entitled "The Chameleon" from 1964.

Robert Towne passed away on July 1, 2024 at the age of 89.
