• R.I.P. Lux Interior

  Sad day in LA with the news that Lux Interior from The Cramps had passed away. We got to know Lux when he took on the part of Rayo X in our movie, Los Campeones.

  UPDATE: The screening at The Egyptian was wonderful, and there was a nice dedication to Lux beforehand.  Below is his onscreen credit (Thanks to all the true friends, and friends of Fwak! who turned up in support)

  

  
  
  
  
  We needed a creepy, unearthly yet endearing voice for Rayo X, and after testing many actors, it was apparent that the role was made for Lux. Working with him was both a blast and an honor…Tomorrow night will be a sadder experience hearing his voice ring out at The Egyptian, and a little unnerving when Rayo utters Lux’s favorite line in the movie ‘Ah, the heady stench of death’.
