His streak of films starting with Spinal Tap in the 80s-90s is pretty remarkable (although I only hate-watch A Few Good Men - a minority opinion but so much of that movie is just awful IMO.)

Stunning indeed. Quite a legacy, probably cut short.

Sad. Sad

Sadder yet to read that it was his son that likely killed him. Such a tragic end to a great director & comedic actor. Meathead will live on.

I still think of this when I put on my shoes.

Tragic. Terrible. R.I.P.

Hard to process these kinds of senseless acts. Their son was likely in some sort of severe dissociative state and I can't imagine he was in his right mind. Such a terrible tragedy indeed. RIP.
