RIP: KATE O'MARA

1939 – 3/30/2014: An actress more famous in England than here, though she was in Dynasty with Joan Collins during the 1986 season. But to me, she’ll always be the gorgeous actress from the Hammer films The Vampire Lovers and The Horror of Frankenstein.Even though she’s gone, she will live forever (for me) in those two movies that I watched as a teenager, and re-watched times since.

Interestingly, the monster in the above picture with Kate is Dave Prowse who I got to meet back in the early 90s and was the actor who actually acted Darth Vader in the original 3 Star Wars movies!
