RIP Ben Chapman

The original Creature from the Black Lagoon, Ben Chapman, died today aged 82. Chapman played the creature on land, whilst underwater scenes featured swimmer / stunt man Ricou Browning.

Whilst Chapman had no other roles of note, the Creature from the B;ack Lagoon remains a fifties horror classic, espeially in it's original 3D version). Below is the original theatrical trailer:
