William Smith has been an exploitation movie regular for almost 60 years and is the undisputed King of the 70’s Biker movie.He has appeared in everything from the Robert Clouse slugfest DARKER THAN AMBER to the low budget cheese of THE SWINGING BARMAIDS and Francis Ford Copolla’s RUMBLE FISH. Smith always delivers the goods when playing the hardest of hard men and his fists resemble flying anvils in fight scenes! He’s still hammering them out today in very much the same roles as fellow exploitation pro’s John Saxon and Don Stroud. Vietnam vet, Killer, Biker, Cop,Cowboy ,Boxer, Hitman,Corrupt Cop,Renegade Cop, Conan’s father!
You name it and William Smith has done it.
