RIP Christopher Lee

Christopher Lee seriously was like the real life World's Most Interesting Man... Descendant of the Roman empire, war hero, knight, actor, epic metal vocalist, etc...

I'm cranking some Charlemagne in his honor (seriously though, this album is legitimately awesome!):

  Quote

"On his 90th birthday (27 May 2012) he announced the release of his new single "Let Legend Mark Me as the King" from his upcoming album Charlemagne: The Omens of Death, signifying his move onto "full on" heavy metal. That makes him the oldest performer in the history of the genre. The music was arranged by Richie Faulkner from the band Judas Priest and features World Guitar Idol Champion, Hedras Ramos.[116]"

rip mighty one

Think I'll post a couple of videos. Here he is being old and a boss.

De Niro v Pacino in Heat can fuck off, this scene of two heavyweights tops it. At a screening with the director he said Christopher Lee was so much taller it looked odd when they were in the same shot but he refused to go on his knees and Donald Pleasence wouldn't stand on a box so them facing the camera was the only way around it.

That incredible voice reading a classic poem.

And here he is, being as camp as a field of tents, and bloody glorious. If you don't name your poison then I'll have to get the boys in.

Long live the Saxon King

Bon voyage Lord Summerisle
