[Lead Farmer]

I know you guys don't know me but you do Deadite sorry to say he passed away yesterday at the age of 36.

He will be missed dearly.
I know he loved debating with people on this site I watch him do it all the time. He was my best friend and brother for 15 years.I hope he made your life a little better like he did mine.

love and miss you Deadite.:(
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN!!!

[honeykid]

Is this for real?

[Derek Vinyard]

:O :O :O :O :O are u kidding me ????? tragic ... this man was sympathic and a great horror movie fan just like me . I cannot believe it . I hope he is in a better place right now .

R.I.P deadlite

[jiraffejustin]

Please tell me this isn't true.

[The Rodent]

WTF?

[The Gunslinger45]

If this is real I am very sad to hear it. :(

RIP

I dedicate this song to him ...

oh my god this is awful. seriously one of the best members here. i don't even know what to think right now.

Posted in the R.I.P. Meshach Taylor thread (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?p=1114030#post1114030)...

SC, do me a favor... Don't make any threads about me.

That's it... now I'm killing MoFos......

[jiraffejustin]

Is there anyway this can be confirmed? I dearly hope not, because I don't want it to be true.

If it is true then I send all my condolences to Deadite's family and friends. R.I.P.

[Yoda]

Really sorry to hear this. :( I'd noticed he hadn't been on in a bit, but it wasn't unusual for him to leave for awhile and then come back, so I didn't think too much of it.

He and I had a lot of conversations about a lot of serious issues. Some contentious, some very respectful. He was always intelligent and over time I came to like him more and more. There was one conversation about mathematics and metaphysics that we kept meaning to have, but never did. And now I guess we never will. It's a shame, because I would have liked to have heard what he'd have to say about it, like so many other things.

Rest in peace.

[seanc]

I wish we didn't have to even decipher whether this is true or not. Unfortunately that's one of the thing that is not so cool about the internet. One of the things that is cool is people like Deadite who bring unique personality and opinions. I am sorry for your loss.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I wanna know what he died from.

[honeykid]

R.I.P. my friend. Frankly, there's nothing else to say. :(

[Miss Vicky]

I really hope this isn't true. :(

But if it is, R.I.P. Deadite. We'll miss you.

[Sexy Celebrity]

That's awful. I think it's real.

[TONGO]

36. Way too young. Very sorry to hear he's passed.

[Sexy Celebrity]

He was just posting a bunch of poetry. I was posting some, too. Last thing I thought about him was I was pissed he didn't give me any reps for my poems.

[The Sci-Fi Slob]

Terrible news. R.I.P.:(

[Cobpyth]

My sincere condolences to his family and friends. He was a great member.

May he rest in peace.

[Sexy Celebrity]

This was one of his last posts -- in the "What are you doing at this very moment" (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?anchor=1&p=1120798#post1120798) thread:

Feeling very ill and trying to focus on reasons to go on.Jesus! Maybe he was sick.

[Swan]

Oh my God no. Deadite was the best. I will seriously miss him. :(

[mikeython1]

R.I.P. Deadite. :(

[rauldc14]

I don't want to believe this as true, but how could anyone make this up?

Rest in Peace Deadite

[Sexy Celebrity]

Remember when he recently said this in Rate The Last Movie You Saw (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?anchor=1&p=1120140#post1120140)? It was one of the last things he said:

I have never and will never do drugs or smoke weed.

Too bad. It's even better on drugs than it is on weed. Especially the bad ones.

I will pass.

I will puff puff pass.

:rotfl:

[Sexy Celebrity]

I don't want to believe this as true, but how could anyone make this up?

Deadite himself wouldn't play a trick like this. That would be something I might do and he'd scold me for it.

Deadite was an awesome member here, and some of the evidence is right here in this thread. Deadite will be missed a lot

Sorry to say it is real.

[Sexy Celebrity]

We have to throw him a MoFo Funeral.

[mark f]

Deadite, wherever you are, I can't help but believe you're better off and laughing at us.

[mrtylerdurden]

I may be new and I may not have known him that well but he seemed like a great guy. Hope his family is ok and they have my condolences.

R.I.P. Deadite

[cricket]

This is terrible news and I feel awful.:(

RIP Deadite

You will be missed dearly

[Lead Farmer]

I'm just gonna post this here. For those that wanna know his gallbladder went bad like worst the hospital ever seen, he had it taken out but his liver and kidneys gave out. This is a message to everyone that reads this even if you hate or are scared of hospitals and doctors have yourself checked out don't put stuff off.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I want a picture. Get us a picture of Deadite, if you can. I know he was kinda private, but I'll ask anyway, just in case it's possible.

[The Rodent]

I didn't give Deadite permission to die though, so as far as I am concerned, Deadite, you are still here my friend. Always.


Deadite. Not afraid to say what's up... not afraid to speak your mind... let your spirit of "not giving a ****" live with us... for ... ever.


RIP Deadite.
Long missed.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I think this is the first time we've had a confirmed death of a MoFo here.

[Sexy Celebrity]

He'll be getting a 2014 MoFie, that's for sure.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Well, unless a bunch more of ya drop off.

[The Rodent]

He'll be getting a 2014 MoFie, that's for sure.


That's the least he deserves...

[MovieGal]

I didnt know Deadite very well... he did comment on my posts sometimes when it was horror related....

I hope he's peaceful. I wish I would have known him more. We could have talked about Extreme Horror and such. He seemed like a really nice guy.

[Shadow]

Absolutely horrible news. He was a great guy from his posts and he was always enjoyable and pleasant to talk with over just about anything. Incredibly saddened to hear this, my condolences and heart all go out to his family at this time.

R.I.P. :(

This was a poem (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?p=1115075#post1115075) he posted two weeks ago:


Oh my metaphor
My sad sad metaphor
How I cry and/or wail for you
My spirit lactates
My orifice quivers
Dust and spilt milk

Like sands through the hourglass...
These are the days of our lives
Ignominious defeat
at the hands of a clock
Clowns surfing their webz
Looking for clown sex

What have we become?
Wherefore and what dost thee
Thou verily do the dew
Tragedy wracks my little brain
Sighing and whimpering
I hide under the bed

Taste not the cheerios of fate!
All is lost
Starring Robert Redford
Might be worth checking out
Because I enjoy films about survival
Man versus Nature
That sort of thing

But I digress
To quote Mark Twain
And so on
It's nothing but a G thang, baby
And I'll be seeing you in all the familiar places
Sipping upon gin
And juice

For thine are the power and glory and nachos
Forever and ever
Ect.

Anyone got a link to his username?


I think an annual marathon should be held in his name based on his Top 10

[jiraffejustin]

Maybe make this a checkable list? Deadite's 50 Cool Movies for Cool People (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?t=30667)

Sadly it was never finished.

[Sexy Celebrity]

His Top 10 was as follows:

1. Young Guns
2. Young Guns

Wait... reading the wrong Top 10.

Here it is:

Deadite's Top 10 Movies:

1. Goodfellas
2. Natural Born Killers
3. The Nines
4. Sling Blade
5. The Thing
6. Evil Dead 2
7. Mulholland Drive
8. Fargo
9. Dead Alive
10. Fight Club

I'm not very good in these situation because I always want to turn something bad to fun...He was great!

R.I.P.

[rauldc14]

It's an unfinished list though :(

[Sexy Celebrity]

Also, before the site changed layouts and we got the new Top 10 system, Deadite used to list DOZENS of movies in his spaces for his Top 10 Favorite Movies. He listed what looked like 100 movies!

[Sexy Celebrity]

Maybe make this a checkable list? Deadite's 50 Cool Movies for Cool People (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?t=30667)

Maybe make 51-100 of Rodent's Comic Book Movies list a checkable list, too?

[gbgoodies]

I haven't been here very long, and I really didn't know him, but it's always sad when we lose a member of the "family". My condolences to his family, and everyone here who knew him.

This was some of Deadite's art that he posted in the MoFo Art Gallery thread. I'm attaching them here because it seems some of the pictures have disappeared.

[Nostromo87]

will always remember him as the Badash MoFo, which was his custom user title. in honor of Bruce 'the Chin' Campbell's Ash from the Evil Dead Trilogy

Deadite was a cool guy, terrible news

tough to find the right words to say, wish we MoFos could meet in a face-to-face kind of setting so we could have the chance to interact beyond our keyboards. maybe we'd know and remember more about Deadite if that were the case

[Sexy Celebrity]

Everyone should put "R.I.P. Deadite" as their User Title under their avatar. Or something like that, ya know? That's what I'm doing.

[Swan]

Deadite was one of my favorite horror fans on the forum - Sexy, nostromo, honeykid, you better not leave me too.

[Godoggo]

Wow, I liked Deadite a lot. This deeply saddens me. Deadite was always real you know. I always looked forward to his posts and missed him when he was gone.

He was one of those really smart people that wasn't a bit egotistical or pretentious about it. He also had the ability to look at things from another perspective and admit that you might be right too. That's a rare quality and I'll miss him being a part of this forum.

[WBadger]

Sorry to hear about Deadite, rest in peace buddy

[Powdered Water]

What sh*tty news... Man I hate this f*ckin world sometimes. I almost wish I hadn't even gotten on the damn computer tonight. I didn't even come in here at first because I though SC was just goofing around. Ack... 36? That's too bad.

I wouldn't do that to Deadite, but I'm not surprised you thought that.

[Godoggo]

I'm going to make his achievement post a sort of memorial to him. I'll put one of his poems up and maybe an art piece.

If anyone would like to say a few brief words about him, I'll put that in his post as well. Just pm it to me

It need not be sad, he had a good sense of humor, funny stuff would be fitting as well.

Anyway, Deadite, my dear, sweet online friend, here is an Evil Dead II prayer candle lit (I think it's lit?) in your honor.

Deadite, I don't feel totally surprised by this, actually. I risk sounding like... me... but, if one of us was gonna go... had to go... and you did go... I'm not totally surprised it was you. I don't know much about you, but I know you liked horror movies (as I do) and I know your life wasn't always easy. And it sucks that you only had 36 years of life. That's not a long time. I hope, though, that you found some peace and happiness while here. I hope I helped give you some of that.

We used to talk a lot back in the day via PM when he first joined. Our friendship had some bad days, but I think the good days definitely outweighed them. A memory just came back to me now about something that happened then. I'm not going to go into it, but, damn, now it's you. Deadite, I hope you went peacefully. If there's another realm of existence after this, I hope you watch over us. Of course I won't mind if you're too busy to and you do other more fun things.

R.I.P. Deadite!

I love you! We'll miss your posts here!

Always,
S.C.

[Nostromo87]

feel bad saying this, but if anyone identified themself this way, it was Deadite

isn't it weird that the first of us to go is Deadite ?? according to the lore, a Deadite lays dormant and isn't actually dead, maybe it's a weird way to think about it.. but Deadite himself identified with the concept

[Sexy Celebrity]

Yeah... he put the "dead" back in Deadite, I'm afraid.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I'm going to be so embarrassed if this does turn out to be a cruel joke.

[honeykid]

I'd take that.

[donniedarko]

Wow, really sad news. Great member, one of the first I remember from this site. That's really all I have to say.

R.I.P.

[Sexy Celebrity]

He also kinda won the first Battle of the MoFos (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?p=779859#post779859).

Originally, Harry Lime did, but after Harry Lime was mean to me, I decided to take away his crown and give it to Deadite.

[Swan]

He thanked Satan.

He was a hilarious and very intelligent guy who was a great writer. He'll be missed. RIP :( (if it's true). It's a pity it's not April Fools Day :(

[Sexy Celebrity]

Wait a minute... he died YESTERDAY?

Damn that's sad, very young I wish the best to his familly and friends.

RIP Deadite. I'll miss you, you were truly a quality Mofo.

And thanks for letting us know, Lead Farmer. By the way, what was his first name?

I'm not sure if I should really say, but what the hell? He told it to me.

His name was Neal.

[Harry Lime]

Thanks, SC. Just wanted a first name to go with the person I knew.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Just noticed on Lead Farmer's profile page that the only profile message he got was from Deadite back in April where Deadite said to him, "Howdy :)"

So, just in case you had any doubt about this, judging by that alone, I don't think you can doubt anymore. He's definitely gone.

[jiraffejustin]

Rest in Peace Neal

This is still really eating at me, more than I really thought something like this would. Especially considering how little I communicated with him.

[Sexy Celebrity]

It's so final. He can't come back ever again. There will never be a new Deadite comment.

He stands out to me, too. There are some people here that, I'm sorry to say, if you died, I might not think much of it. Deadite, though... well, we haven't PM'ed each other about stuff in awhile, but his voice and his personality do stand out for me. Even when he was alive and not here for awhile, I'd wonder where he was. I am surprised that he died, actually. It's surreal to see "R.I.P. Deadite." He can't ever come back and scold me anymore or make some funny joke or basically roll his eyes at me. I will miss that. I wish I had got to know him better.

Deadite had a big heart. I am pretty sure of that. I wonder what he would make of this thread.

We have to continue here without him now.

[rauldc14]

My first encounter I remember with Deadite was in Mofo Big Brother where he was the first to go in the game. I told him sorry for eliminating him and he was cool with it.

[Sexy Celebrity]

That's right. He was the first one eliminated from MoFo Big Brother 1.

[The Gunslinger45]

All we can do is hope he is in a better place.

[jiraffejustin]

Does anybody know if there is a way we can look at an archived version of the site or something that will show us all the movies he had in his "top ten" before the site change?

[Sexy Celebrity]

I hope Deadite felt loved by us here. And just in case, we can express that now. Even if it seems like it's too late.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Does anybody know if there is a way we can look at an archived version of the site or something that will show us all the movies he had in his "top ten" before the site change?

Maybe... I don't know.

It was a lot of horror stuff. I know he liked the first two Hellraiser films, as I do. They were on it.

I know this doesn't even matter, but he gave me my first +rep (http://i.imgur.com/J1MBbSZ.png) when I joined the site.

He was a great member with great taste in films. R.I.P

[Sexy Celebrity]

He liked so many movies I like. That's what I'm gonna miss. Now I'm completely alone here.

And I never got to do a commentary with him. I asked him before. He turned the opportunity down. He never did a commentary at all. I wonder how that would have turned out. There were things I wanted to watch with him.

Does anybody know if he meant the original Japanese versions of The Ring and The Grudge or the American remakes?

Probably Japanese. This is Movie Forums, afterall.

[jiraffejustin]

I am leaning towards the American remakes right now, just because he has them listed as The Ring and The Grudge. The Japanese version is usually listed as Ringu or just Ring. While The Grudge is usually listed as Ju-On. I could be wrong, but I will go with that.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Probably American, judging by this post. (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?anchor=1&highlight=grudge&p=851161#post851161)

Same here i remember he was a big fan of The Exorcist like me, not just the original either he was the only other person i knew who liked part 3 too. Really sad stuff. I always thought he was one of the best writers on the site, and his 50 cool movies for cool people thread was amazing. RIP:(

I got my first rep from Caitlin. My second rep from Harry Lime

[Shadow]

The board feels so empty now without him :(

[Godoggo]

My first encounter I remember with Deadite was in Mofo Big Brother where he was the first to go in the game. I told him sorry for eliminating him and he was cool with it.

He was up against me. :( I felt bad because I didn't want him to be the first out.

[TheUsualSuspect]

Deadite gone? Seems weird to have someone post here saying he's passed away.

Deadite and I did NOT get along when he first started posting here. I considered myself the resident "horror" guy on the message board and here comes this other guy who always seemed to get up in my face with his egotistical attitude.

Yoda and I actually had a back and forth PM session over the constant negative REP that Deadite would give me over absolutely nothing.

Well, time passed on and we actually got to liking each other. I don't think anyone else on this board got or respected the horror genre as much as I did like Deadite did. His avatar was an instant recognizable picture.

The guy had an opinion and like it or hate it, constantly got the conversation going.

Will be missed, he was an important part of this site.

Will be watching some films of his in his honour, maybe we should do a week of watching his favourite films in his honour? Make a thread for it and just shoot the sh*t about Deadite at the same time?

This is what I said to Deadite in his last anniversary thread:

Happy Anniversary. Stop being so moody all the time.

I don't know if he ever saw it.

I guess he'll stop!

Anyway, yes, Deadite could be a tough cookie, but there's much worse around here, I say.

[HitchFan97]

Oh wow. This is tragic news. When I first joined the forum, Deadite was one of the first members I got to know. So sorry to hear about this, rest in peace - Deadite was a great member and I always thought he contributed a lot to the MoFo community.

[TylerDurden99]

Really sad news. Really nice guy and always easy to get along with.

The Deadite "Top Ten" (http://www.imdb.com/list/ls070419475/)

He definitely didn't take movies too seriously. :D

We should do a quick little Deadite Song Tournament.

64 songs that make you think of Deadite or the movies he loved.

Good work JJ. I know you were just going by the list SC posted but +1 for The Exorcist 1 and 3 being in the top 10 :)

[Sexy Celebrity]

It upsets me that Deadite didn't like Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth.

He liked 1, 2 and 4, but not 3. Hellraiser III is so good!!!

[PeterVincent]

RIP, he always spared the hate and even liked a few of my awful reviews and opinions from time-to-time, he was intelligent and never cruel. Deadite will be sorely missed. xx

Deadite as you know him Neal to me was my first cousin by blood. but when I was 14 he moved in with my mom an me for a short time. He stayed for most of 15 years we were cousins by blood but we were brother's. He taught me alot was the smartest person I knew. As you can tell my writing skills blow lol he knew but encouraged me to join he introduced me to jrpg's an a loved formed for them.he introduced me to movies really with the same result lol. I still can't wrap my head around that i'll never play another rpg with him, or watch another movie. But i'll continue to watch movies and game in his memory.

[Frightened Inmate No. 2]

i can't remember where i put him on my list for the top 100 mofos, but i think he was in the top 15. i didn't necessarily always agree with his opinions (zack snyder), but his posts were always really insightful and he was a great debater, and one of the few members here who wasn't afraid to get into really intense arguments. he's the kind of person who makes the internet fun to read. i was going through my reps and found some he gave me when we were teasing mesmerized in that abortion thread. i think that thread was when i first stared to notice him and i really respected him. he was really fun and joked around a lot, but he could also hold his own in a debate against someone like yoda. best dude.

[Lead Farmer]

And as for a pic of him I'll look but he didn't like taking them so probably wont find 1 to upload.

[Sexy Celebrity]

How did all of this happen, Farmer? Was he sick for awhile? Was it very recent/happened fast?

Maybe it's too much to talk about now, but it's just shocking. He never mentioned having serious health problems.

By any chance, do you happen to know what the last movie he watched was?

I hope he was surrounded by people who loved him when he went. So odd that he'll never post here again. His absence will definitely be felt.

He was sick for a little while but we had no idea it was so bad till he had the surgery. As for the last movie he watched maybe The Raid but not sure.

It was wavy and black not really long tho he shaved it bare a lot.

I see... one last Asian movie for the road, then. I'm tempted to post the gong video.

[doubledenim]

I haven't been here for long, but Deadite seemed like a real dude. All hopes that you lie peaceful now.

[Kaplan]

I didn't have any interaction with him, but I certainly remember reading a lot of his posts. He definitely seemed like a cool guy. At least his contribution here will live on, even if we won't see any new posts from him. It's strange that this is the third forum where it was confirmed that a member had died. In one case it was an older gentleman, but in the other it was a young guy as well, because of health reasons. I'm sure there's been cases where a member just stops posting and it's because they've passed away. It's horrible news, but having happened, it's better to know about it so as to honor that person, especially when they're a valuable member.

R.I.P. Deadite (Neil)

[Daniel M]

Wow, just seen this thread and I'm obviously shocked. He was a great member who I remember being quite active when I first joined, and was always friendly and encouraging to me. Very sad news, R.I.P :(

Damn. What a sad thing to log in and see this morning. :(

I always liked reading his posts, his acerbic wit, and his straight-forward way of discussion. We will always remember Deadite here at MoFo...

[windsoc]

I didn't have much interaction with Deadite but looking at his Avatar I do remember seeing him around on threads I went into. It is always hard to loose someone in a community like this because from all the responses it is clear this is not just a forum but a family and in this sad time it makes me smile that he touched so many people in so many good ways and was loved, it is clear he will not simply be forgotten.

RIP Deadite.

[Sleezy]

Very sad to see this today. :( I really enjoyed chatting with him on a number of occasions. He was a sharp guy.

You know, this throws into sharp relief the "reality" of even our digital existence here. Most of us have never met, so we're just names on a screen to each other. Just a bunch of silent voices all gabbing away, not really affected by nor concerning ourselves much with the passing of time. I've been a member here for 10 years. Sure doesn't seem that long.

Just want to say I'm thankful to "know" all of you here. I really enjoy this forum and I'm glad Chris has taken the time to keep it going.

[Tacitus]

Damn, that's rough. Rest easy mate.

I'm sure a lot of us had the same experience as me, logging in of a morning to find a disproportionate amount of rep handed out to you and finding out it had all been given by Deadite. :)

[Nausicaä]

Bugger, saw this on the front page of the forum just now and was hoping it was another silly joke thread but turned out not to be the case. Enjoyed reading his posts especially the ones on horror films and also little chats with him. :(

Deadite, RIP.

Deadite was responsible for pretty much all of my rep on weird little posts that didn't deserve any sort of rep. I didn't know him all that well, but from what little I knew, and the little that we talked, he was a decent guy.

Deadite gave me a rep for pointing out that a movie from the 90s can't become an instant classic ;). That wasn't my last rep from him though, he gave me 3 or 4 since then.

[Sexy Celebrity]

The last post of mine that Deadite repped was this silly post of mine in Food Association where I posted a picture of a key lime milkshake. He repped it a week ago, even though it's sort of an old post.

I edited the post just now and dedicated it to him. (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?p=1058960#post1058960)

He also repped this post in Sweatin' to the Oldies Song Tournament (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?p=1119969#post1119969) a week ago.

And he repped this (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?p=1118802#post1118802) two weeks ago.

[The Sci-Fi Slob]

The last conversation I had with Deadite was a banterous exchange in his Cool Movies (http://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?t=30667&page=8&highlight=deadite) thread regarding Liam Neeson's performance in Darkman - he was always a good laugh.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I remember Deadite had put up a good fight trying to get the full Comic Book Movies List of Rodent's up in the MoFo Lists.

Now that he's dead, I think someone ought to respect his wishes.....

Hey Lead Farmer are you sure Deadite is dead?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKR5KdHPiSI
Or is he undead?

I think he would have thought this was funny or would have ripped me for it.

Either way, it's all good.

I'll miss him.

The one and only thing I ever said to him on the conversation page on his profile...


Just come online and found you've given me 2 pages of Reps on my Marathon thread... cheers Deads mate!


Shows what kind of guy he was with dealing out reps. There's been numerous other times I got a pile of reps from him. My reviews thread always got me a bunch from him as well.

[Sexy Celebrity]

You know, I love Deadite very much, but let me just say this....

Rodent.....

I'm glad it wasn't you.

I love Deadite. LOVVVVVVVVVVVVE Deadite.

But if this thread was "R.I.P. The Rodent" they'd have to make "R.I.P. Sexy Celebrity." I would electrocute myself in a bathtub (without Captain Spaulding) by tossing a TV playing Young Guns in with me. That's what I would do if it had been you.

[The Rodent]

I won't live to see 40... I can't "see" 40 in my future. I can see things happening in my future, I can see where I'll be next year, the year after even... but I simply cannot see me turning 40... I've got 7 years left at most.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Well, that upsets me, Rodent. I hope that you're wrong and that eventually you will see 40 in your future. And 50 and 60 and 70 and 80 and 90 and 100 and 110 and 120 and 130 and 140 and 150.....

You have to live a long time!!! Just like Billy the Kid in Young Guns II.

I won't live to see 40... I can't "see" 40 in my future. I can see things happening in my future, I can see where I'll be next year, the year after even... but I simply cannot see me turning 40... I've got 7 years left at most.

I think everyone struggles with that -- envisioning certain ages.

I remember as a kid calculating how old I'd be when the year 2000 hit -- a whopping 38. At the time, I just KNEW I'd never live to be 38 and see the millennium change.

Turns out I was ringing in the new year with my new second husband instead... another thing I would never have expected: not only ever getting married but ending up getting married twice.

I'm 53 now and can't envision myself being my parents' age. Just because it's difficult to imagine doesn't mean it's impossible.

I am very sad to hear this news and I wish that I have gotten to know him better because he seemed like a very nice guy to talk to.

Really? You got cured today?

R.I.P. Deadite. I'm really going to miss you.

[the samoan lawyer]

RIP Deadite. Terrible news.

OMG :bawling: :bawling: :bawling: :bawling: :bawling: :bawling:

[doubledenim]

I had been going back and reading some of Deadite's posts and reviews. Anyone that can articulate well has a true talent ime. His posts read like they are water pouring from a pitcher and will be missed.

The last post in my own reviews was from him.


I'm leaving it like that for a while before I post again.

R.I.P. Terrible news. :(

[Jack1]

Saw him posting around the forum a few times but never really spoke to him.

RIP. Tragically young age.

I think I may have found Deadite's obituary. I am not going to post the link here, but I really suspect I found it. I found it a week ago but didn't want to say anything. I did some searching and found someone I believe is him. I asked Lead Farmer if he'd confirm it, but he hasn't signed on again.

[Iroquois]

The only significant interaction I remember having with Deadite was arguing over whether or not Evil Dead II counted as a sequel or a remake. He argued well, that's for sure.

R.I.P.

Did he think it was a sequel or remake?

[Guaporense]

Absolutely terrible news. I liked reading Deadite's posts and he was someone that I liked (though he didn't like me after I criticized Fargo :o). I will miss him very much.

[Guaporense]

I know you guys don't know me but you do Deadite sorry to say he passed away yesterday at the age of 36.

Such young age.... A pity.

[JayDee]

I know I'm a bit late to the party (poor choice of words) but just found out about this.


Terrible news. :( He came off like a really cool, good guy. He made me feel very welcome on here, being one of the first people I actually connected with as we traded PMs moaning about some members who had annoyed us. :D He was always up for a chat, was very friendly and very appreciative and complimentary of my reviews. I'll miss him being around the place.

Rest in Peace mate, my sympathies to his friends and family

[Iroquois]

He said remake, I said sequel.

[teeter_g]

I saw the title of this post before, didn't really think anything of it (thought it was an SC prank to be honest). I didn't know Deadite. I saw some of his posts and he seemed like a really knowledgeable guy. He will definitely be missed here on movie forums.
Rest In Peace, Sir. 36 is FAR too young.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I wish Deadite could have been here to see that everyone thought his R.I.P. thread was a joke started by me.

[AndrewFerroll]

RIP - He was my fave horror writer as a youngster. His earlier stuff is great. Wasn't so keen on some of the later novels but that's life.

Deadite! Never knew you were a famous horror novelist.

[Yoda]

I think he may have been confused about this thread.

[urkillinmesmalls]

Man, you leave a site for awhile and then this happens?

What can I say? I mean he seemed like a great guy. He creeped me out a little bit, but that was the fun of it.

I remember he was one of the only MoFos who was my friend on here back when I kept posting dumb sh*t and everyone else was just annoyed by me. Definitely saddened by this news, and I hope to meet him on the Other Side someday.

[JayDee]

Over the last few days I've been clearing out my inbox and other PM folders. It's something I've been meaning to do for years because they were an absolute mess, just hundreds and hundreds of messages I'd never gotten around to deleting or organising.

Anyway I just came across this old PM from Deadite from a couple of years ago. Don't know why exactly he left at the time but revisiting it now almost brings a tear to the eye. And the fact that the message has the title "Goodbye" makes it even more poignant


JayDee

Howdy, friend. I'm writing this to inform some of my pals from the forum that I am leaving the board for personal reasons. I wish you the best of luck and much happiness in life.

It was great knowing you! :)


:(

[hello101]

Even though I haven't interacted with Deadite, he seemed like a hell of a guy judging off posts alone. RIP

[MovieMeditation]

Ever since I became a member of this forum I've been reading about this Deadite guy and how people were writing RIP all over the forum. Then I realized it was a member who passed away, when I saw this thread for the first time. Knowing who he was or not, I felt sad either way. Never felt like posting in here though, it felt too weird as I didn't know him as I came here too late, but now I feel like saying something anyways.

I wanna say, I do understand and condole with people who knew him through the forum. You'll be surprised how much you get to know one another through simple writings of text. Back and fourths, opinions you have and haven't got in common, personal and impersonal stuff etc. After a while you basically got a surprisingly clear picture of the actual person. I can't even imagine being on this forum for years to come and then suddenly a member passes away that I felt like I knew first hand.

Rest in piece Deadite, your spirit is still here with us

[Sexy Celebrity]

Deadite wasn't really here for a very long time, though. I think he joined in 2011. He would also disappear for months on end.

But, he made himself known. At least he seemed a little stand-outish to me. He had a fierce personality. Passionate. He was low key without really being low key. He was like thunderstorms -- loud, but not something you hear everyday. And now he's become a rare kind of solar/lunar eclipse/comet/whatever kind of thing -- we saw it, but now it's gone, and we're never gonna see it again in our lifetime.

[mark f]

Deadite sent that message to me too, so I'd imagine all of us he considered friends received it. I found it while cleaning my inbox too. Needless to say. I kept that one.

[90sAce]

I'm sorry to hear he passed at such a young age
