I’ve just read on Latarnia boards that the Spanish actor Josep Lluis Fonoll passed away some months ago, he made several b flicks and Spanish sexploitation. It was posted by our friend Nzoog and he says the following:

The Catalan actor Josep Lluis Fonoll, remembered as the cross-dressing SWAT member in HELL OF THE LIVING DEAD, died several months ago. Cause and date undisclosed.

A regular in the films in Iquino in the seventies, he also acted for Manuel Esteba and even landed a co-lead role in Fracesc Herrera’s Catalan comedy Locos, locos carrozas. His career faltered with the decline of the Catalan film industry and he bought a bar in Sitges, whicvh he was still running at the time of his death.

Thanks to Ricard Reguant for this information.
