On July 13, 2012, the media and the world for that matter descended on a mid century modern home located in the hills of Studio City. This was the home of Sage Stallone, son of movie legend Sylvester Stallone, who unfortunately passed away at the young age of 36 from a heart attack due to an atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. At the time that Sage was found in his home, it is believed he may have been dead for three to seven days.
Stallone made his film debut in 1990 in the film, Rocky V, playing "Robert Balboa Jr", the onscreen son of his father's title character. Stallone would later perform in other films and also co-founded Grindhouse Releasing with film editor Bob Murawski which was dedicated to the restoration and preservation of exploitation films and B-movies.
