Michael Parks
In 1969, Parks reprised his Wild Seed wandering hipster persona in the hit television series Then Came Bronson. His theme song for the series, Long Lonesome Highway, which composed and sang, became a chart-topping hit in the early seventies.
Frequently cited by longtime fan Tarantino as the world's greatest living actor, Parks' film credits include Larry Cohen's legendary scandal-mongering bio-pic The Private Files of J. Edgar Hoover (1977), The Evictors (1979), and The Hitman (1991), with Chuck Norris. He also co-starred in the David Lynch television series, Twin Peaks, and as a Western sheriff in the Quentin Tarantino/Robert Rodriguez vampire romp From Dusk Till Dawn (1996).
Parks will also appear, playing a different character, in Kill Bill (Vol. 2).
