Director Bob Clark dead
Sorry to announce that director Bob Clark (of "A Christmas Story," "Black Christmas" and "Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things") and his son have died in a car accident.
****************************** From Associated Press: LOS ANGELES -- Film director Robert Clark, best known for the beloved holiday classic "A Christmas Story," and his son were killed Wednesday in a car wreck, the filmmaker's assistant and police said. Clark, 67, and son Ariel Hanrath-Clark, 22, were killed in the accident in Pacific Palisades, said Lyne Leavy, Clark's personal assistant. The two men were in an Infiniti that collided head-on with a GMC Yukon around 2:30 a.m. PST, said Lt. Paul Vernon, a police spokesman. The driver of the other car was under the influence of alcohol and was driving without a license, Vernon said. The driver, Hector Velazquez-Nava, 24, of Los Angeles, remained hospitalized and will be booked for investigation of gross vehicular manslaughter after being treated, Vernon said. A female passenger in his car also was taken to the hospital with minor injuries, police said.

That's too bad. I never was a big fan, but that's still sad.

A Christmas Story, Black Christmas, Porky's, Loose Cannons... he had some good stuff. I wonder if somebody else will take over the Children Shouldn't Play With Dead Things remake he was directing...

I met the man less than 4 months ago. He was vital and funny and still very excited about making movies. It is a terrible, terrible loss.

Another life snuffed out by a drunk driver, very sad indeed. While I haven't seen all of his work I am a fan of his zombie movie Dead of Night. R.I.P Bob Clark and son Ariel.
