Among his over 100 memorable credits were starring roles in such cult favorites as Frankenstein's Bloody Terror (1968), Les Noches del Hombre Lobo (1968), Werewolf vs. the Vampire Woman (1971), El Hombre Lobo: Dr. Jekyll vs. the Werewolf (1972), Vengeance of the Zombies (1973), The Mummy's Revenge (1973), Crimson, the Color of Blood (1973), Horror Rises from the Tomb (1973), Count Dracula’s Great Love (1973), The Hunchback of the Morgue (1973), Night of the Werewolf (1981), Panic Beats (1983), and Rojo Sangre (2004).
