I never met him, sadly, but I treasure this photo of him holding the Blu-ray of The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Miss Osbourne that Daniel Bird and I co-produced for Arrow back in 2015: a total labour of love that still ranks high among my proudest career achievements.

RIP Udo Kier. In late 1983 and early 1984 I saw his Frankenstein, Dracula, and Dr Jekyll on assorted big screens, in all cases absurdly too young, in films that had a worryingly disproportionate impact on my entire cultural worldview. He truly fucked life in the gall bladder and no mistake. RIP.
