Ira Levin, R.I.P.

Ira Levin has died.

You might not have read any of his books.

I guarantee that you've seen movies based on them, though.

Wow. I've actually read most of what Ira Levin wrote. He was quite talented and a fun read.

Mailer and Levin are gone, I wonder who's #3.

Dammit, I've read all of his books.

And wished he'd written more.

I have actually read all his books. He made quite an impression on me, starting in the late 60s. He will be missed. :(

Aw, HELL. Rosemary's Baby still scares the crap out of me.

Never never never read Rosemary's Baby and Stepford Wives back to back when you have killer PMS.

Actually, I've read Rosemary's Baby and The Boys From Brazil, but I haven't seen any of the film adaptations of his work. So there. :P

Not even Stepford Wives? Or Sliver? Or either A Kiss Before Dying?

[yendi]

I think I can safely guarantee that I'll never do that.

Hey, you never know - science is doing some amazing things. *G*

[creepingcrud.livejournal.com]

Nope. To be honest, I don't see a lot of movies.

That's too bad. His book This Perfect Day is one of my favorite Dystopian novels.
