His last two films were The Cat and the Canary (1979) and Inseminoid (1981). With writer Tom Weaver, he can be heard on the DVD commentary tracks for eight of his films: The Haunted Strangler, Fiend Without a Face, First Man into Space, Corridors of Blood, Devil Doll, Secrets of Sex, Horror Hospital and The Cat and the Canary. Weaver wrote The Horror Hits of Richard Gordon, a book-long interview published by BearManor Media in 2011. Gordon's brother, Alex Gordon, produced exploitation films for American International Pictures in the 1950s. Gordon died at New York-Presbyterian Hospital[3] on 1 November 2011, at age 85.[4][5] He had been suffering from heart problems for several months.[3] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://explore.bfi.org.uk/4ce2ba63897e8|title=Richard Gordon|work=BFI}} 2. ^{{cite book|last1=Weaver|first1=Tom|last2=Brunas|first2=John|last3=Brunas|first3=Michael|title=Interviews With B Science Fiction And Horror Movie Makers|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=kMYf7vlGQn0C&pg=PA170 |year=2006|publisher=McFarland|isbn=0-7864-2858-9|page=170}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 McLellan, Dennis.
