    R.I.P. he did a good job in the two MST films I saw. (208 & 419)

    My favorite film he did was “Angry Red Planet,” with Gerald Mohr,
    Naura Hayden, and perenial B-Movie general, Les Tremayne.

    This is a film that should have been the subject of MST3K: The Movie with its great score, cheezy red FX, and the “bat spider.”

    Also the only film I can remember with NO opening titles.

    Great score though.
