Kill Bill and Kung Fu star David Carradine has been found dead in a Bangkok hotel room.

 

Thai police told the BBC the 72-year-old was found by a hotel maid sitting in a wardrobe with a rope around his neck and genitals on Thursday morning.

 

The US star was in Thailand filming his latest film Stretch, according to his personal manager Chuck Binder.

 

Mr Binder said the news was "shocking", adding: "He was full of life, always wanting to work... a great person."

 

Carradine was part of an acting dynasty which included his father, John Carradine, and brothers Bruce, Keith and Robert.

 

The star was best known for his role as Kwai Chang Caine in the 1970s TV series Kung Fu, which spawned sequels in the '80s and '90s.

 

After a career which included more than 100 movies with directors such as Martin Scorsese and Ingmar Bergman, he recently found fame again thanks to his role in Quentin Tarantino's 2003 film Kill Bill.

 

He is survived by his wife, Annie Bierman, and four children.

 

They edited it!!

My favourite saying from "Kung Fu" was when Carradine asked...

 

"Master, why do you answer every question with a question?"

 

and the reply to Grasshopper "Why do you question every answer?" Genius! :)

He was still used to voice Frankenstein who he played in the original.

 

Seems like he was only an orange away from being a Tory MP...

 

:D

 

The genitals bit is a bit weird, I think here was on some 'megaw@nk' idea that went a bit wrong.
