    Cousin of John Prine.
  • Quotes
    [on the 70s exploitation films he starred in] Then I did a couple of headrollers, and I did them for the money - they paid me a lot of money to do them. I was never a guy who was unhappy on a set. I enjoyed the game, the circus - and I enjoyed the girls. We always had a bunch of fun girls on those movies. The only one I regretted making - I didn't regret The Centerfold Girls (1974) or The Evil (1978), which turned out to be pretty good. But I didn't like Terror Circus (1973) [a.k.a "Barn of the Naked Dead"]. When I got into that I thought, "You've gone too far, my boy." I couldn't imagine my way out of it, though they paid me a lot of bucks. I thought, "Let's not do this again."
