That House

That Doll

Karen Black

Strange to have just read about Karen Black's passing.  She seemed to be in so many films I watched when I was young.  And she always seemed so solid and centered in her roles - and so normal.  The perfect actress to be in the unstable setting of a horror film.  She made it seem real.

And I'm not sure if it's appropriate to mention in a blog post like this, but she was my first boyhood crush.  Though I'm thinking she'd get a kick out of that.  I hope she would.

Rest in peace, Ms. Black.
