RIP, she played Marlee Marlin’s mom in Children of a Lesser God. Great movie.

They're all gonna laugh at you. . . .


Thought she was fantastic in The Faculty (underrated movie):

Carrie is up there with The Exorcist and The Shining as most scariest horror film of all-time.

Also pure evil as Magda Goebbels in the TV movie The Bunker

Memorable spot on Frasier where she basically played the same kind of nutty mom as in Carrie:

The Grim Reaper at it again. Always first to post the recent dead. Could we get them in the ground first? 😇
