Leo Vincent Gordon (December 2, 1922 – December 26, 2000) was an American film and television character actor as well as a screenplay writer and novelist. During more than 40 years in film and television, he was frequently cast as a supporting actor playing brutish bad guys.
Gordon was born in Brooklyn in New York City on December 2, 1922. Reared by his father in dire poverty, Gordon grew up during the Great Depression. He left school in the eighth grade, went to work in construction and demolition, and then joined the New Deal agency, the Civilian Conservation Corps, in which he participated in various public works projects. After the United States entered World War II in 1941, Gordon enlisted in the U.S. Army, in which he served for two years and received an undesirable discharge. Gordon was in southern California where he and a cohort attempted to rob a bar and its patrons with a pistol. He was shot in the stomach by one of the patrons. He was arrested for armed robbery and served five years in San Quentin Prison, where he furthered his education by reading nearly every book in the library.

An intelligent, well-acted "message" melodrama hides behind that hard-nosed title. Directed by Don Siegel at his most primal, the film's violence erupts in compelling contrast to the quiet intelligence of the screenplay by Richard Collins (My Gun is Quick). Its empathetic attitude is due in some part to veteran producer Walter Wanger whose recent stint in the slammer moved him to advocate for improved prison conditions. Starring Neville Brand as the firebrand who instigates the protests and, as "Crazy Mike Carnie", real-life ex-con Leo Gordon, who Siegel described as "the scariest man I have ever met " but went on to a long career as a dependable character actor. This was the beginning of Siegel's longtime friendship with Sam Peckinpah who served as dialog director on this and several othe...

Kings of Horror presents: Attack of the Giant Leeches While poaching in the Florida Everglades, Lem Sawyer [George Cisar] fires five shots into a giant leech-like creature, but none of the old boys lolling around in Dave Walker's [Bruno VeSota] General Store will buy that it was anything other than one too many swigs on Lem's jug of moonshine. Besides, there is Dave's slutty she-cat of a wife, Liz [Yvette Vickers], running around in various shades of undress to occupy their conversation. However, when State Game Warden Steve Benton [Ken Clark] comes upon Lem's body, his face covered with marks like those that would be made by the tentacles of a giant squid or octopus, it's apparent that something unnatural killed Lem, and it wasn't an overgrown alligator.
