Lori Nelson – Rest in Peace

Actress Lori Nelson only appeared in a couple of creature features but there were more than memorable to make sure that we mention her recent passing here. In 1955, she appeared in two monster flicks, one with a very low budget and one with a much bigger one. She appeared alongside Richard Denning in Roger Corman’s The Day the World Ended, fighting a mutated survivor of an atomic blast. That same year, she joined John Agar in the sequel Revenge of the Creature, fighting off the GIll-Man who is stalking her! So if you were looking for an excuse to bust out either of those tow movies, then now is your chance.

Nelson passed away on Sunday, Aug. 23rd, at the age of 87. Even though she only did appear in two monster movies, we know that us fans will never let her name and talent be forgotten. Our thoughts out out to her friends and family during this difficult times.
