#RIP Reggie Bannister (1945-2026)

He'd been in the hospital for a while, so it wasn't unexpected, but it's still a major bummer. I met him about 10 years ago and he was perfectly capable and friendly then. I would never have guessed he'd be gone just a decade later. Phantasm rules, and he was a huge reason why.

Don Coscarelli wrote a nice tribute to him on X:
