Clu Gulager was one of those guys who you'd always recognize when you saw him in a movie or a TV (which was often, as he was in 165 shows), and that's because he was always great in everything he was in.
Due to his rugged good looks, Clu was cast in a zillion westerns and then Don Segal's THE KILLERS, then the slow, but great, LAST PICTURE SHOW, finally getting a second life in horror films after being cast by Dan O'Bannon in RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD.
He was absolutely great in that movie.
He got his nickname "Clu" from his father; it's his Cherokee nickname for the clu-clu birds (Martins).
