Legendary Actor Dennis Hopper has passed away.
Just over a week after his 74th birthday, on what Governor Bill Richardson officially declared Dennis Hopper day in New Mexico the beloved actor, director and accomplished artist has succumbed to the cancer he’s been battling since last fall.
Hopper commemorated the fortieth anniversary of his iconic film Easy Rider and celebrated his longtime love of New Mexico at 2009′s Taos Summer of Love where his artwork was showcased in the gallery showing, Hopper at the Harwood.
The actor was promoting his Albuquerque filmed television series Crash in NYC when he first fell ill last September.
He will be greatly missed the world over.
The AP reports:
“Dennis Hopper, the high-flying Hollywood wild man whose memorable and erratic career included an early turn in “Rebel Without a Cause,” an improbable smash with “Easy Rider” and a classic character role in “Blue Velvet,” died Saturday in Venice, Calif., of prostate cancer. He was 74.
Hopper’s roller coaster career also included “Rebel Without a Cause,” “Blue Velvet,” “Apocalypse Now” and “Hoosiers” as well as flops such as “The Last Movie.”
But the improbable success of the 1969 hippie-biker epic “Easy Rider” remained his biggest triumph. He not only co-starred but directed and co-wrote the film, which also starred Peter Fonda and Jack Nicholson.
Hopper, Fonda and Terry Southern were nominated for Oscars for best screenplay.”

For advice on the finest in Viking Metal, Zombie/Slasher film and so much more, the whole of the Q need look no further than to “The Hesh Files”.
Whether you get to know him as Sir Heshington, David Heshelhoff, Hesh Holiness, Hesh Leppard, Hugh Heshner, Heshasaurus Rex, or Heshfest you’ll find that he is a true Renaissance man (does the picture not say it all) and you’ll simply call him Presh Hesh!
If you’re interested in learning the complexities of why Prince is the second coming, discussing the subtleties of Beastmaster as a true classic piece if cinema, or if you just wanna chat ‘em up in hopes of becoming his first, ex-wife catch him while you can.
Be sure to hook-up with the Hesh to see his personal gallery of body art including but not limited to; a dismembered unicorn, the Chick-fil-a logo, camel toe, a Hulk Hogan portrait, and mustard on a biscuit.
To book Hesh for your private party, day-shift, night shift, part-time or full-time entertainment needs please contact his handlers here
