    RIP "Kung Fu" Carradine

    Man, this is too bad. I've enjoyed his more recent roles, like Bill in "Kill Bill".

    Davide Carradine dead in Thailand

    Wow, This Really upsets me, Ive been on a Tarantino kick lately and just watched Kill Bill 1 & 2. Thought he was perfectly cast in that movie. Also special mention to his father John who was one of my favorite character actors in the Universal Flicks of the 30's and 40's.

    It's looking like a case of auto-erotic asphyxiation.

    Bet this is going to get some press.

    Update: A rep is saying it was an accident. That could mean anything.

    Say it ain't so.
    If so, it's a sickness on the level of meth addiction (or something I just don't understand).

    Sad news.

    Unfortunately, he had been very open about his suicidal thoughts, and this is apparently looking like a suicide. *EDIT* Looks like reports are surfacing that it might have been accidental, indeed.

    No less tragic, though. Loved watching Kung-Fu as a boy.

    Anybody taking bets on how long until the crime scene photos are leaked to the National Enquirer?

    Very sad news, I really enjoyed the Kung Fu series, and his talent as a musician.

    He was awesome......sounds like he was up to a bit more in Thailand than shooting movies and polishing up his martial arts skills....what a tragedy!
