We have sad news to pass along today as we have learned that actor Bill Cone, who played Tommy in Phantasm, has passed away, according to a post on the official Phantasm Facebook page.

The post, which can be seen below, mentions that in addition to acting, Bill was a key collaborator on the original Phantasm soundtrack, providing skilled guitar work. Previous to that, Bill had contributed his musical skills to Phantasm director Don Coscarelli’s film Kenny & Company.

Released on 1979, Phantasm was directed by Don Coscarelli and starred Angus Scrimm, Reggie Bannister, A. Michael Baldwin, Bill Thornbury and Kathy Lester.

The team at Horror News Network send our deepest condolences to Bill’s family and friends at this time.
