John Davis Chandler

Actor

Born - 28 January 1935, Toluca Lake, California, USA
Died - 16 February 2010

Alternately sneering and snivelling, this small, fair-haired character actor with striking pale blue eyes specialised in weasels. He whined at a fistful of western heroes and was always neurotic and dangerous. He had the title role in his first film, as a neurotic gangster in Mad Dog Coll (1961), and was notable in Ride the High Country/Guns in the Afternoon (1961), Major Dundee (1964), The Good Guys and the Bad Guys (1969), Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973), and The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976). Later films included Adventures in Babysitting/A Night on the Town (1987), Only the Lonely (1991), Phantasm II (1993) and Carnosaur 2 (1995), his last. He died from cancer.
