I have refrained from posting anything about Val Kilmer, because the truth is, I have not kept tabs on him for many years. Still, today was a fucking sad loss, whichever way you look at it. My favourite film from him had always been Willow, where he starred as Madmartigan. Until I saw Oliver Stones' The Doors. Having become a very big fan of The Doors and by proxy, Jim Morrison, in the early 2000s, I finally watched this movie in around 2009/2010 and was blown away by how Val essentially became Jim. Jim hasn't been with us since 1971, and now Val is no longer with us, which is heartbreaking. Break on through, Val, and become the rider on the storm that you always, in life, were. RIP

I was sad to see him go. His first movie was one of my favourites of all time "Top Secret." And the movie "Ghost and the Darkness" is a must see for any person out there. He was part of some amazing works and he is missed.
