R.I.P. Kevin McCarthy

By Joe on September 13th, 2010

We're sad to report that Kevin McCarthy passed away at the age of 96 this past weekend in a Cape Cod hospital. His career spanned over 60 years and along the way he played roles in such horror classics as "Twilight Zone: The Movie", "The Howling", "Piranha" and "Invasion of the Body Snatchers". I'll always remember him as R.J. Fletcher in "UHF", no one could scream "festering bowl of dog snot" like him.
