His friend, director Rob Zombie, shared the news on Facebook Friday morning.
“We have lost another member of our HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES family. I woke up to the news that Michael J. Pollard had died. I have always loved his work and his truly unique on screen presence,” Zombie Wrote. “He was one of the first actors I knew I had to work with as soon as I got my first film off the ground. He will be missed.”
