Don Sharp RIP

Unfortunately Don Sharp, the director of Kiss of the Vampire, has passed away at the ripe old age of 89.  Director of a handful of Hammer films (including Rasputin) and one of the better episodes of the Hammer House of Horror TV series, as well as a few of The Avengers episodes, Sharp has made a reasonable mark on the genre.  You can read our review of one of his best films, Witchcraft, right here.  Condolences to his family/friends.
