We here at Faygoluvers.net are saddened to report that horror icon Sid Haig unfortunately  passed away this past Saturday. He was 80 years old. Haig’s wife, Susan L. Oberg, announced his passing via Instagram: “He was my angel, my husband, my best friend and always will be. He adored his family, his friends and his fans.”  Born Sidney Eddy Mosesian July 14th, 1939, the son of an electrician, the Fresno, California, native first broke out within the entertainment world as a drummer (Yes, a drummer!), recording the No. 4 oldies rock hit “Full House” with the T-Birds in 1958. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmhVwxgMlbE Soon after Haig appeared in more than 50 films ( 350 television series), ranging from Bruce D. Clark's  1981 film"Galaxy Of Terror" to George Lucas’ 1971 film “THX 1138” to the 1971 James Bond film “Diamonds Are Forever” to Quentin Tarantino’s 1997 crime film “Jackie Brown,” acting as a judge in a role written specifically made for him. But Sid's best remembered for his work in low-budget films, particularly horror films like director Rob Zombie’s trilogy “House of 1000 Corpses,” “The Devil’s Rejects” and “3 From Hell.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cDNFhZ3c5eQ As most know in the Rob Zombie trilogy, Sid famously portrayed  Captain Spaulding, the clown-makeup-wearing patriarch of the murderous Firefly family and the proprietor of a Museum of Monsters and Mayhem. He was a super-talented individual and was always honored and happy to meet fans at conventions worldwide. Scottie D, my friend Kim, and I were thankfully able to briefly meet Sid Haig at Astronomicon 2019 and he showed nothing but fan appreciation and was super down to Earth! RIP SID HAIG YOUR TALENT SHALL LIVE ON FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS AND MINDS!
