6 Best R.G. Armstrong Movies

By Vlad Zakh · August 13, 2026

R.G. Armstrong brought a booming voice and stern, often menacing authority to decades of westerns, horror films and action pictures. Predator hunts a commando team in the jungle, Children of the Corn finds a town where children have killed every adult, Dick Tracy battles a gangster, and Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid hunts an old friend across New Mexico. My Name Is Nobody and El Dorado round out the list.
