It was reported late last week that Anne Carradine, widow of the late David Carradine, has filed the most absurd wrongful-death lawsuit in world history. The filing essentially claims that MK2 S.A., the producer of Carradine’s last film Stretch, should have hired someone to keep him from accidentally strangling himself to death while jerking off in his Bangkok hotel room.
Which is why I found a 6.4 Huffington Post comment mildly amusing, or at least in keeping with the Anne Carradine spirit: “I’m suing 20th Century Fox [for having] suffered a broken ankle, bulging discs in my neck and lower back, a sprained knee, two chipped teeth, a gash on my forehead and five groin pulls. All of these injuries occurred as a result of fleeing the theater every time the Marmaduke trailer came on (except for the groin pulls — those details are unnecessary).”
