You were the last remaining of Edward D. Wood Jr.'s cinematic clan, having costarred in "Plan 9 From Outer Space"; "Bride of the Monster"; "Night of the Ghouls"; "Glen or Glenda"; "Jail Bait"; and "The Sinister Urge".
You also made us smile with your special appearances in "Beast of Yucca Flats", which headlined your good buddy, Tor Johnson; "Max Hell: Frog Warrior"; "Toad Warrior"; "A Polish Vampire in Burbank"; "Curse of the Queerwolf"; "Conrad Brooks vs the Werewolf"; "Monster Man"; "Toilet Gator"; "Space Vampires from the Planet Blood"; "Bikini Drive-in"; and of course, the new "Plan 9" (2015), with dear, ol' Mr. Lobo...to name but a few. You also took a stab at directing/producing, gifting us with the "Gypsy Vampire" and "Hillbilly Monster" sagas, in addition to "Blood Slaves of the Vampire Wolf."
You clearly loved life, Mr. Brooks, which included your adoring fans, who always felt fulfilled and elated after meeting you. May you enjoy your time in eternity with the old gang. I can only imagine all the eccentric wonders you're yet to concoct in the Great Beyond...
