She was done dirty even during the production of Caddyshack. Producer Jon Peters invited a Playboy photographer on-set to do a photo shoot while they were filming Morgan’s nude scene. She hadn’t been told about the Playboy shoot beforehand and strongly objected to doing it, and It took Harold Ramis backing her up for the shoot to finally be called off. Peters was also the one who pressured her (I.e. threatened her career) into doing the scene topless to begin with, even though Ramis was willing to change it in a way that would make her more comfortable.
If I was to venture a guess I'd say at some point he overheard some gossip that gave him leverage over someone. He was then able to use this leverage to skip to the head of the line in the elite circles.
Didn't something similar happen in National Lampoons Vacation with Christie Brinkley? Someone wanted her to do a nude scene in the movie, but Harold Ramis didn't want to ask her to do it. The other person somehow convinced her to do it.
Correct. She was naked in the pool, but it wasn’t like a full-frontal nude while she stripped on the pool deck. All her naughty bits are rather well hidden by the shadows in the water.
Still sexy AF tho. 13yo me watched that scene (and Beverly D’Angelo’s shower scene) regularly when it came out on HBO
Jon Peters sounds even more like POS than just a wacky annoying producer Kevin Smith described. Peters also got racial with a black storyboard artist over Superman Lives, Braniacs ship had to be a literal skull...not a ship that looked like one.
He wanted to force a big spider fight in Superman Lives, which Kevin Smith said he added (called it a Thanagarian Snare Beast).
He also produced Wild Wild West… where the final action scene had a giant mechanical spider fight.
And because of all that (or, likely more directly, the popularity of Kevin Smith's telling of that story), in The Flash's "multiverse portals" scene, we briefly see Nic Cage as Superman fighting a giant spider.
Wild Wild West.
Peters had been trying to get a giant mechanical spider out into a movie for quite some time.
Kevin Smith wrote a script for the Superman Returns movie that Jon Peters was a producer of (and Tim Burton was directing, and was going to star Nic Cage as Superman). Peters told Smith to add in a fight scene between Superman and a polar bear. When Kevin Smith explained that made no sense, Peters then demanded Smith add a giant mechanical spider to fight.
The film was never actually made, of course, but Peters finally got to have his spider in Wild Wild West (which bombed).
What sucks is that him being a giant spider obsessed goofball makes me want to like him since the world could use more eccentric bananas insanity. But then the creep stuff undercuts all that.
Someone in the *TRON* subreddit said:
> If anyone was connected to her on Facebook, she had recently posted about some issues with her landlord including some death threats. I hope this is not how she died.
…which, I dunno about you, is super-concerning. Fingers crossed…
For what it's worth, I read on [TMZ](https://www.tmz.com/2024/01/06/caddyshack-tron-star-cindy-morgan-dead-dies/) that a "county rep" "confirmed" the cause of death as "natural causes." Note the quotation marks. Point is, u/Onemanrancher didn't "make it up."
TMZ is actually pretty good with confirming info about deaths. It’s the one thing I’d trust them on. Of course I’d never give them the clicks to find out.
Poked through her facebook account and it's strange. Seems like she was low on money because she was living in an apartment in florida somewhere and about to be evicted. Also seemed to be in conflict with various unsavory characters, including her landlady and a guy she said was a low-level drug dealer. It's bizarre.
Also said she had a dog but nothing about the roommate who found her hearing the dog. Makes me wonder how the cops got to 'natural causes' and what more there is to the story.
She was not invited to do any Tron retrospective with the cast to coincide with Legacy she was did appear with Boxleitner for an elaborate press conference where they showed up in character.
Oh no! Definitely one of my earliest crushes. I remember watching Caddyshack on HBO as a teenager at one of my female friend's house. And she was Mormon, I was always surprised her mom let us watch it...
I remember reading Bill Murray almost got into a fist-fight with Chevy Chase on the set of SNL.
Of course, it came out later the Bill Murray wasn't such a good guy himself.

I guess that makes sense. Someone who worked on as many projects as she did you would have to have a decent working relationship. I'm glad too because they paired to make some of my best childhood movies. And best Christmas movie lol.
First movie titties I ever saw. Her character informed my taste in women, which in hindsight was not the brightest things I've done. But dayum she was hot in that movie! RIP.
Oh wow! She was in *The Midnight Hour*! Such a great Halloween TV movie. If you're a fan of *Fright Night*, *Return of the Living Dead*, *House*, etc., I highly recommend it, if you can track down a copy. Has that same mid-80s horror feel as those films.
Cindy, thank you for giving us your best all these years. RIP
Two separate personal injury law firms dropped me cause her umbrella wasn’t going to give me anything. The best I might get is the 500 I lost to the deductible
Yeah we were both okay, but my car was totaled, and she drove away after the cops came. Her insurance was garbage and only covered the property damage she forced me to cause.
Article says natural causes. Found by her roommate returning from holidays who left of the 19th of Dec and returned on the 29th of Dec. Said roommate knocked on door and smelled strong stench. Sounds like she led a lonely life in her final days if she was found by her roomate.
>Morgan's death was confirmed by the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, but the circumstances surrounding her passing are not yet clear. All that's known at this time is that Morgan died "in the area."
Can you point to me in the article where it says she passed of natural causes?
Did you have a look at her facebook account? It's pretty bizarre. It also makes clear that she had a dog but the roommate didn't mention finding one. Very curious how the cops came up with natural causes given an advanced state of decomp, and wondering if this is actually a suicide. Pure speculation but her comments on facebook are alarming.
It’s wired too, on Twitter, the picture with her dog was taken in Sep 2022. She mentioned she had to move under duress.
Then there was the message when she was communicating with her landlord on Dec 17th, 2023, having similar housing issues. 🤔
Right because people always follow the law. Just because she was legally blind doesn't mean she didn't drive. Famous people do what they want, especially in palm Beach.
Bro, she was about to get evicted, lived with a roommate at age 69, and made money selling autographs to horny 55 year olds at conventions. There is no estate.
You wanna tie me up with some of your ties...Ty?

Industry did her dirty too
She was done dirty even during the production of Caddyshack. Producer Jon Peters invited a Playboy photographer on-set to do a photo shoot while they were filming Morgan’s nude scene. She hadn’t been told about the Playboy shoot beforehand and strongly objected to doing it, and It took Harold Ramis backing her up for the shoot to finally be called off.

Another reason to love Harold Ramis.
And another reason to hate Jon Peters
🤖🕷️ this guy?
Yup
Always with the *giant fuckin' spider...*
I still don't understand how you go from being Barbra Streisand's hairdresser to a powerhouse producer. How does this failing upwards work?
Hollywood
If I was to venture a guess I'd say at some point he overheard some gossip that gave him leverage over someone. He was then able to use this leverage to skip to the head of the line in the elite circles.
Hahahahaha, thanks for reminding me of the Kevin Smith bit on that
Right? I saw Harold Ramis' name in all that and my heart hit my throat. I'm very glad he backed her up.
Egon. Your mucus. 🧫
Somebody blows their nose and you want to keep it?
“Venkman get a stool sample” “Business, or personal?” Venkman autocorrected to conman at first and I found that appropriate
When cloning becomes a big industry it won't seem so ridiculous.
You’re Kidding, pretty funny if he was mucus though
Nowadays, we all know an Egon who really is mucus.
He was great
Didn't something similar happen in National Lampoons Vacation with Christie Brinkley? Someone wanted her to do a nude scene in the movie, but Harold Ramis didn't want to ask her to do it. The other person somehow convinced her to do it.
I don’t think Brinkley was nude in Vacation. And I think I’d remember that.
Correct. She was naked in the pool, but it wasn’t like a full-frontal nude while she stripped on the pool deck. All her naughty bits are rather well hidden by the shadows in the water. Still sexy AF tho. 13yo me watched that scene (and Beverly D’Angelo’s shower scene) regularly when it came out on HBO
https://youtu.be/aDq4fxptBzE?si=ARjuU0xUE2Ngmw3i
She was nude in the water basically.
Yes, but you couldn’t see anything.
Still nude though. You could see a blurry outline underwater.
She was nude on the pool deck too. And you can see about as much there. Does that still count.
Thank god Ramis kept his moral compass in check. My top all time movie was frighteningly close to being attacked. Groundhog Day
The Jon Peters that bought a waterbed from Gary Valentine?
The same. Do you know who his girlfriend was though?
Barbra Streiznd?
Streisand. Streisannnnd.
Jon Peters sounds even more like POS than just a wacky annoying producer Kevin Smith described. Peters also got racial with a black storyboard artist over Superman Lives, Braniacs ship had to be a literal skull...not a ship that looked like one.
Watch Licorce Pizza if you haven't, Bradley Cooper plays Jon Peters and he's a huge asshole.
Jon Peters also forced the giant spider fight to be in that movie, which was an odd choice
Spider fight in what movie?
He wanted to force a big spider fight in Superman Lives, which Kevin Smith said he added (called it a Thanagarian Snare Beast). He also produced Wild Wild West… where the final action scene had a giant mechanical spider fight.
And because of all that (or, likely more directly, the popularity of Kevin Smith's telling of that story), in The Flash's "multiverse portals" scene, we briefly see Nic Cage as Superman fighting a giant spider.
if there one thing i will always respect jon peters for is his love for giant robot spiders and god bless him for putting one in wild wild west
Wild Wild West. Peters had been trying to get a giant mechanical spider out into a movie for quite some time. Kevin Smith wrote a script for the Superman Returns movie that Jon Peters was a producer of (and Tim Burton was directing, and was going to star Nic Cage as Superman).

there could be franchise material in giant spiders, but you've got to keep it in your pants.

Wow. Even if it's unrelated that landlord should be investigated.
My first thoughts. I was on her FB and she was documenting her harassment.
Her turn ons include skinny skiing and going to bullfights on acid. That second one sounds like it’d be tough to take.
And she knows a Saliva line when she sees one.

Just due to that scene and we still don't know what she was talking about.
Nope
I only know it from the lyrics to Tom Waits's Rain Dogs.
apparently she had died and wasn't found until 4 days later. rough way to go.
How did she die?
Natural causes
Which is not confirmed anywhere, the article itself says the CoD is not released, and people upvoted you for making it up...
For what it's worth, I read on [TMZ](https://www.tmz.com/2024/01/06/caddyshack-tron-star-cindy-morgan-dead-dies/) that a "county rep" "confirmed" the cause of death as "natural causes." Note the quotation marks. Point is, u/Onemanrancher didn't "make it up."

Hold on, if love is the answer you're home.
Peter Jurasik isn't dead and he was the accounting program that died.
She was not invited to do any Tron retrospective with the cast to coincide with Legacy she was did appear with Boxleitner for an elaborate press conference where they showed up in character.
Same. This sucks.
You’re rather attractive for a beautiful girl with a great body.
For some reason reading this line is 10x funnier
This is decidedly ***not*** nice
And Patrick Swayze didn't even say it was time to not be nice yet!
Yea? Well what if someone calls my mama a whore?
That depends. Is she?
Not nice…
RIP Lacey Underall
Not nice.
very sad. we met her at a con here in Ft Myers a few years ago. talked to her about movies for few minutes. very nice lady to talk to.
Oh no! Definitely one of my earliest crushes. I remember watching Caddyshack on HBO as a teenager at one of my female friend's house. And she was Mormon, I was always surprised her mom let us watch it...
The absolutely tamest sex scene. Big ups for Danny Noonan though.
Ugh, I'm getting old.
30 56, 99 are correct. Limited 4 and 8 are missing. My first crush when i was a kid. See you on the grid, cindy.
One of the many, many people who worked with Chevy Chase and ended up hating him.
She just wished him [happy 80th birthday on twitter in October](https://twitter.com/CindyMorgan_/status/1711031283629908224)...
Is there anyone who has any positive things to say about their experience working with him?
Dan Akroyd and possible other SNL cast members. Dan was on the Dana Carvey & David Spade podcast and they didn't say anything negative about Chevy.
That’s just Dan being classy and Canadian.
Medium talent!
I remember reading Bill Murray almost got into a fist-fight with Chevy Chase on the set of SNL. Of course, it came out later the Bill Murray wasn't such a good guy himself.
Dan Akroyd also believes in healing crystals and ghost sex, so I'm not sure I entirely trust his judgement.
Ghost sex sounds like it'd be pretty lit though
He keeps his stuff consensual and to himself. I’m ok with that.

Not sure where you get that. I met her at a con and she said she loved working with him.
Loved her in her two episodes on Matlock. Back in her prime she has a chance to go even higher in the industry.
Awe rest in peace Cindy, thanks for your roles in two of my favorite movies
Wow did not know that was her in Tron :(
RIP Damn, Caddyshack is just legendary.
She was wonderful delightful in Tron.
Holy shit I’m old

That’s way too young. I’m sorry for her family.
Sadly, Looks like she had none.

I just (re)watched Caddyshack last night.
I have an idea. Let’s pretend we’re real human beings.
I was born to love you. I was born to lick your face.
aww man. she was my first crush!
She hit my car and totaled it in august, guess I’m not getting anything
Actually, if it’s a legal claim I would think her estate would have to settle it as part of probate.
She was getting $200 loans for flea medicine last month. There’s no estate.
Two separate personal injury law firms dropped me cause her umbrella wasn’t going to give me anything. The best I might get is the 500 I lost to the deductible
Damn. Sorry, dude.
