Obit. Richard Gordon died on Tuesday at the age of 85. Dennis McLellan in the Los Angeles Times: "Beginning his more than two-decade career as a producer in the mid-1950s, Gordon executive-produced movies such as Corridors of Blood with Boris Karloff and Christopher Lee, The Haunted Strangler with Karloff, Island of Terror with Peter Cushing and Fiend Without a Face and First Man Into Space, both with Marshall Thompson. He later produced films such as The Cat and the Canary, Horror Hospital and Inseminoid.
