I remember reading he was so frightened of snakes but still
Took the fall into the coffin full of them. {[]

He was also a sparkling element in the Annie film. And such a great presence in LALD. R.I.P. Mr. Holder - you will certainly be missed. -{
The last 35 days have taken Gottfried John, Richard Kiel, and now Geoffrey Holder. Where have all the henchmen gone?
RIP to Geoffrey Holder. Hope his family and loved ones are doing okay through this difficult time. Great screen presence, tremendous entertainer, and by all accounts a wonderful person. Will be watching LALD this weekend to pay tribute -{

Just heard about Geoffery Holder on NBC Nightly News, in addition to acting he was also a painter, sculptor, and choreographer. He also did a lot of commercial in the 1970's and 1980's including 7 Up as the "Un-cola man".
RIP Geoffery Holder

Sad news regarding Geoffrey Holder - an amazing dancer, choreographer and actor. His character Baron Samedi transcends death in LALD and I hope and believe that the memory of this great human being will too. -{

I well remember those 7-Up adverts. I loved them not just for the Bond connection but also for his wonderful voice. For years as a teenager, I thought the 7-Up guy was LALD co-star Yaphet Kotto because that name just seemed to suit that voice so much better than 'Geoffrey Holder'!

I'm another one who first encountered Geoffrey Holder in the 7-Up ads. As a kid I loved the way he'd say "The Un-cola. . .ah, ha-ha-ha!" Farewell to a legend!

Have you ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?"
We lost Phil Hartman years ago, and we just lost Jan Hooks. This poignant video, 'Love is a Dream,' seems very appropriate now. It really shows the breadth of their talents.
