Truly sad news. He was a favorite of early director producer Roger Corman too. I always looked for Dick Miller's character. Enjoy a big bouquet of carnations. Just like you did in "Little Shop of Horrors."

RIP

Oh Dick Miller! You were so wonderful in all your movies you made! To me you represented the 1950s and by your passing the 1950s are definitely gone now because you were so young and strong seeing you in especially A Bucket Of Blood! Ever since I saw that movie on late Friday nights horror movies I felled in love with you! You were such a joy to see you on the screen up to the last movie you made! Seeing that you were still with us always made me feel good! Rest In Peace and may God bless you

Dick was a creative and romantic figure. Through the years I hardly knew him but he was always the gallant cousin who lived in Hollywood. I admired him from afar.
When "Where's Dick" appeared in film, the entire town of Asheville was entertained by the screening. Not only did we enjoy his warmhearted biography but the interview was cutting-edge-inventive.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to know Dick and to love him.
He's forever with us!

I always looked forward to seeing him in the Roger Corman films. I'm happy he was appreciated by so many directors who gave him such a long and varied career. I met him once at a party and it was an evening I'll always cherish.
