The toll rose to 57, including two Americans, with the death Friday of Syrian-American filmmaker Mustapha Akkad, the producer of the "Halloween" horror movies. Akkad, 75, of Los Angeles, suffered serious injuries and a heart attack in the Hyatt bombing, which also killed his 34-year-old daughter, Rima Akkad Monla, an American living in Beirut.
I read this and I couldn't beleive it one of the best horror movie director/producers in the world was killed in that bombing. Mustapha Akkad was the great Mind of the Michael Myers character in the horror movie franchise holloween which has made 8 movies during the course of 20+ years and has grossed millions thanks to john carpenters holloween theme song.
Mustapha Akkad Tops the list of greatest directors/producers of horror movies of all time.
He will be sorely missed in the movie/ horror industry and by the fans as well.
RIP the original Michael Myers.
