Carol Locatell, who played hilariously short-tempered and foul-mouthed neighbor Ethel Hubbard in 1985’s "Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning," has died.The actress was 82 years old.
Locatell’s longtime agent Peter Strain confirmed the news to Fox News Digital in a statement on Tuesday on behalf of her family. "Carol Locatell passed away last week from cancer," Strain said. "She was a wonderfully versatile actress whose career spanned decades on Broadway and in feature films and television.
She was surrounded by her husband of many years and close friends." Although she was a favorite of horror fans for her role as Ethel, Locatell’s career went well beyond the horror industry.
She worked with Burt Reynolds in three films: "Paternity" and "Sharky’s Machine" in 1981, and "Best Friends" in 1982. She was also a prolific actor on Broadway, starring in Neil Simon’s "Broadway Bound" in 1986, "The Shadow Box" in 1994 and "The Rose Tattoo" in 1995, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
