The Duke of Latenight, Ray Liota


Brief Biography:born: decmber 18th, 1955, Newark NewJersey

Intense is the word for Ray Liotta. He specializes in psychopathic characters who hide behind a cultivated charm. Even in his nice guy roles in Field of Dreams (1989) and Operation Dumbo Drop (1995), you get the impression that something is smoldering inside of him. Liotta is a very selective actor, averaging less than one movie a year.

Why Part of the Royal Family: Ray Liota was in a lot of late night movies that sorta freaked us out. he is a VERY good psycho. plus, we just liked that in Hannibal he ate his own brains. that was cool.
Notable b-movie Performances:
No Escape (1994)
Unlawful Entry (1992)
Dominick and Eugene (1988)
Hardhat and Legs (1980) (TV)
Something Wild (1986)
