Earl Hammond, born in 1929, began his career in radio before transitioning to television and film. He appears in Satan in High Heels (1962) as a supporting actor, contributing to the film's blend of eroticism and drama. In The Hired Killer (1966), he showcases his versatility in a gritty narrative that reflects the exploitation genre of its time. With a rich background in voice acting, including roles in animated series, Hammond's work in these cult films adds depth to the conversation surrounding 1960s exploitation cinema.
The Hired Killer
Hit-man Clint Harris has one more job to do before he can retire. The corporation which hires him demands that Harris "erase" an ex-employee who has become a snitch for the police. At first Harris refuses, but in the service of hired-killer-cinema tradition, his own brother is assassinated, so that he must accept.
