#38. The lovely FAITH DOMERGUE, who appeared in THIS ISLAND EARTH, IT CAME FROM BENEATH THE SEA, CULT OF THE COBRA, THE ATOMIC MAN,  VOYAGE TO THE PREHISTORIC PLANET, SO EVIL MY SISTER, THE HOUSE OF SEVEN CORPSES aside from numerous appearances in Western B-pictures and Western TV shows.

39. George Zucco

Zucco played supporting roles in many A films such as THE SECRET GARDEN, JOAN OF ARC, and MARIE ANTOINETTE and was the ultimate Professor Moriarty in THE ADVENTURES OF SHERLOCK HOLMES. He also appeared in several Universal horrors like THE MUMMY'S HAND, HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN, and THE MAD GHOUL. He also starred in several non-Universal horrors from other major studios like THE MONSTER AND THE GIRL and DR. RENAULT'S SECRET.

Of course, what really cinches Zucco's place on this list is his many over-the-top performances in poverty row horror classics like THE FEATHERED SERPENT, DEAD MEN WALK, SCARED TO DEATH, and THE BLACK RAVEN. Zucco was such a draw in these films his name appears in the credits of THE RETURN OF THE APE MAN even though he dropped out before filming began!


Zucco and Charles Gemora (who deserves a place on this list, too!)


Zucco on the poster - no Zucco in the film!

45. WARREN OATES: First discovered him in classic TV series like "Boris Karloff's Thriller" and "Lost In Space" and have since come to greatly appreciate his fine character portrayals in not only those TV shows but in many films particularly B-movie Westerns like THE SHOOTING, RIDE THE HIGH COUNTRY and RETURN OF THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN. Also a favourite for his appearances in 1941, THE WILD BUNCH, IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT, DILLINGER, BRING ME THE HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA, DRUM, STRIPES, BLUE THUNDER and TOM SAWYER amongst others.

46. John Saxon

Appeared in many b-movies covering pretty much every genre imaginable.

[Rev. Powell]

47. Klaus Kinski.  The definition of "intense".  Though probably best known for his work with Herzog (AGUIRRE, NOSFERATU) he was in his fair share of clunkers, too.  Some notable titles: Scotland Yard Hunts Dr. Mabuse, Goddess of Vengeance, The Pleasure Girls, For a Few Dollars More, Circus of Fear, Killer's Carnival, Justine, count Dracula (as Renfield), Asylum Erotica, Woyzeck.

# 48. ERNEST BORGNINE: Shocking it took this long. Despite a long and distinguished career and indeed some roles in some quality "A" pictures over the years, Borgnine has done more than his share of "B"s to warrant his inclusion here such as JOHNNY GUITAR, WILLARD, BUNNY O' HARE, THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE, THE NEPTUNE FACTOR, THE DEVIL'S RAIN, CONVOY, THE BLACK HOLE, ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, LASER MISSION, GATTACA, SMALL SOLDIERS, BASEketball just to name a few.

You skipped DEMETRIUS AND THE GLADIATORS...!   

49. VICTOR BUONO who we enjoyed in WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BABY JANE? (He later played BETTE's father in a small but important role in HUSH, HUSH SWEET CHARLOTTE) THE STRANGLER, BENEATH THE PLANET OF THE APES, and of course King Tut on the old "Batman" TV series!
