Sad news that Ingrid Pitt has passed away today at the pretty decent innings of 73 years. Probably best known for her turn in cinematic classic the Wicker Man, a film so good even the remake turned out pretty great*, she also had the odd turn in Hammer vehicles and is probably best remembered for carrying the entire film as nympho nutter Countess Bathory in Hammer's Countess Dracula, which I rewatched this evening after hearing of her passing.
* This is a lie.
