Bit of a quick entry today due to prepping for a podcast to
discuss H.P. Lovecraft’s The Cats of Ulthar that took place late this morning,
and I’m headed to Los Angeles for a neofolk/pop performance at one of the small
intimate venues in North Hollywood this evening. Have a good Saturday!

Kisch in Goldfinger
Kisch (Michael Mellinger) is one of the last henchmen of
Auric Goldfinger to meet his death in the third James Bond film, Goldfinger (1964). Early on Kisch tranquillizes Bond per Goldfinger’s
request. Later on, Kisch gasses the members of the Mafia after Goldfinger
reveals his grand plan, Operation Grandslam. During the climatic fight scenes
inside of Fort Knox, Kisch finds himself locked in the vault with Bond, Oddjob
and a bomb. He panics and while trying to defuse the bomb, Oddjob grabs him and
throws him over the railing. Kisch falls to his death.
Mellinger featured back on March 17 – read more about the
man behind Kisch here.
