Death
The only horror film actor who ever portrayed Dracula, The Mummy, Frankenstein, Fu Manchu, the Hunchback, Rasputin, a Warlock, a Zombie, a medieval Inquisitor and a Serial Killer (not to mention a Werewolf in 15 different films!), died on November 30, 2009 from pancreatic cancer in Madrid. Paul Naschy will surely be remembered as one of the most prolific and truly dedicated horror film actors in cinematic history.

Famous quotes containing the word death:
“In the whole vast dome of living nature there reigns an open violence, a kind of prescriptive fury which arms all the creatures to their common doom: as soon as you leave the inanimate kingdom you find the decree of violent death inscribed on the very frontiers of life.”
—Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
“The One remains, the many change and pass;
Heaven’s light forever shines, Earth’s shadows fly;
Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
Stains the white radiance of Eternity,
Until Death tramples it to fragments.”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
“Beauty is a precious trace that eternity causes to appear to us and that it takes away from us. A manifestation of eternity, and a sign of death as well.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
