a tribute to sir christopher lee

holy. fucking. hell.

not only is he a superb actor famous for about a dozen roles as a villain (like dracula, saruman and count dooku), but also:

- he's a knight. and he's been knighted on halloween. how fitting
- he has recorded a metal album over the age of eighty as singer with two complete bands
- he regularly narrates albums by metal bands
- he has been a commando and secret intelligence member in WWII
- during the filming of LotR, he asked peter jackson to re-shoot the scene in which he was killed because, as he said "when you kill someone from behind the noise he makes is not like this one". draw your own conclusions.
- he has made the most films (over 250!!!) out of any actors, dead or alive ever
- he speaks eight languages varying from moderately well to excellent
- he is a direct descendant of charlemagne (NOT joking)
- according to himself, he does a bit of head-banging to music every day

he is probably the most awesome human being ever.
