In Memory of a Monster

I just found out from a coworker that Ben Chapman, the man who played the Gill Man in The Creature From the Black Lagoon, has died. The Gill Man has long been my favorite Universal monster, and I'm sorry to hear of his passing. Here's a picture of Mr. Chapman in happier times, carrying the beautiful Ginger Stanley off to his lair.


Rest in peace, Mr. Chapman. And thank you for the scares.
