Kim McGuire, the actress who famously played Mona ‘Hatchet-Face’ Malnorowski alongside Johnny Depp in John Waters classic cult film Cry-Baby, died Wednesday. She was 60.
McGuire passed away in a Florida hospital after a battle with pneumonia.
Her husband, Gene Piotrowsky, told TMZ that an unwell Kim entered a medical facility Tuesday, where doctors discovered the pneumonia and transferred her to the ICU. As they treated her, Kim went into cardiac arrest, twice, Piotrowsky told the outlet. h/t dailymail
