I saw Trilogy of Terror and Burnt Offerings decades ago and they've stayed with me. Not to mention she was in Easy Rider, Capricorn One and many others. A great loss of a distinctive actress

Yeah, she was in a LOT of b-movies and had a very distinctive look to her. Unfortunately one movie I instantly think of with her in it was AIRPORT '75, and it was awful. Trilogy Of Terror was quite good, however. Rest in peace, Mrs. Black.
My god, I didn't know she passed. I always liked her in everything I saw her in, even the crappy stuff.
One of her most underrated performances was in a wonderfully strange little movie called THE PYX. A lot of people dislike that movie, but the twists at the end are shocking and brutal. And Ms. Black played a whore with a true heart of gold.
Sleep well.
R.I.P.
I saw Ms. Black in loads of movies and she always seemed to be having tons of fun no matter what. RIP, indeed.
That's a bummer. I just saw her in "Capricorn One" a couple of weeks ago and "Burnt Offerings" fairly recently as well. R.I.P.
Ending of Burnt Offerings was so crazy. Maybe viewers can see it coming now but when I was a kid I didn't.
KAREN BLACK was a great actress, a unique talent, and will be missed. Good night, KAREN.
Karen Black was also in Hithcocks last film FAMILY PLOT.
She was also in Rob Zombies HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES.
She was a beauty....dam. RIP. :bluesad:
Hated to hear about this, especially because it was due to cancer. Farewell, Ms. Black, you left an immortal mark in the film world!
I might have cancer.Before my wife died of it,she couldnt pee.
I cant pee,man. I try..but it aint working. :question:
R.I.P. Karen Black. :bluesad:
You were in so many great Horror genre films.
