Goddammit, universe. Can we not? 'Rocky Horror' Star Tim Curry Dead at 80 Source: https://www.tmz.com/2026/08/26/tim-curry-dead/
Same. I mean, I'm already hurting from Dolly's passing, but now Tim Curry? One of my all time favorite actors? It's just not right. Death is taking the wrong 80 year olds.
I was already going to watch some of my favorite Dolly movies, now it looks like I'm going to be adding some Tim Curry films in there, too. 2026 is a hideous bitch goddess.
Don't have a webcam, so I'll describe. *Rotates desk chair a 5 minute clock rotation* *Pulls out drawer#2 of file cabinet #3. *90's "IT" is right there*
Well, if it provides any perspective, Bill Clinton just turned 80 and is still here and probably still doing lines, Hillary's old vampiric ass is two years behind him and still alive, and finally Joe Biden has yet to face Hell for his crimes while shitting his pants at 83. So, I guess it all balances out, huh?
I remember watching Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad as a youth and thinking "This is ridiculous garbage, but the evil computer program villain Kilokahn is surprisingly great. He's really bringing it." Yup, voice of Tim Curry.
Yeah, Tim was one of those guys who you'd listen to while he read a phone book... much like Ricardo Montalban or Peter Capaldi.
I would have gone with "He's going to float, they all float down here" And well, damn. Another one gone.
Oof. Probably not a person alive born after 1969 who wouldn't kill to be known as an "honorary Muppet."
100%. I need to go watch Muppet Treasure Island. I'll watch that for Tim, and I'll watch 9 to 5 for Dolly. What a sad week it has been.

If you haven't seen it... Never gets mentioned among Curry's great roles, and e's only a part of the hilarity here, but what would be better than having some Curry you haven't seen before?
