Actor Christoper Allport Killed in Avalanche

Veteran character actor Christopher Allport died Friday during an Avalanche that took part at Mountain High Ski Resort which is in Los Angeles’ San Gabriel Mountains (about 2 hours away from L.A.).

A busy character actor, Christopher Allport enjoyed an almost 40 year career, from the underrated missing girl drama MAN ON A SWING (1974) to the recently completed GARDEN PARTY (2008). Allport’s genre credits include SAVAGE WEEKEND (1979), a memorable small role as a victim in DEAD AND BURIED (1981), in the disturbing nuclear incident TV movie SPECIAL BULLETIN (1983), Tobe Hooper’s INVADERS FROM MARS (1986), JACK FROST (1996) and JACK FROST 2: REVENGE OF THE MUTANT KILLER SNOWMAN (2000).

I snowboarded at Mountain High on my birthday two days ago.  With it being so close to L.A., it’s hard to imagine a powerful avalanche taking a life there, but the winter storms and rain have been rather ferocious the last week out here.
