See you later, John Phillip Law


Oh, there goes another one. John Phillip Law - the angel from Barbarella, Sinbad from the Golden Voyage and of course Diabolik from the last episode of MST3K. His stunning physique, piercing eyes and imposing presence have not been equaled on screen. (And that sounded kind of gay, but I'm just saying the man was born to play Hermes and never got to...)

Oh, well. We all die - but few of us get to be remembered as icons of 70's cinema. (Yeah, his career didn't end in the 70's - I'm just saying...)

Thanks, now I am going to have to put Diabolik (the MST3K version) in my netflix queue. I seem to recall that was a good one.

Sorry for your loss. Clearly you had a man crush on him.
