Hy Pyke Right Hy Pyke is an United States character actor born in Los Angeles, California on the 2nd of December, 1935, the son of vaudevillian David Pyke and his wife Pauline. Pyke majored in theatre at the UCLA in the 60's, appearing in numerous student films, including one for Ray Manzarek, keyboard player of The Doors, called Induction (1965), which also featured The Doors vocalist Jim Morrison in a brief role. During that time period, Pyke was also associated with Del Close. From the UCLA, Pyke went on to have a longish career playing strange, often comic characters in usually out-of-the-ordinary, low-budget, independent features, with some brief appearances in mainstream films. Some of his mainstream appearances, like a small part in the John Milius film Dillinger (1973), ended up cut out of the final film. Although many of his better known films are in the horror genre, Pyke acted in everything from blaxploitation to musical comedies. He had a unique acting style best described as "manic", which some might call overacting, with a penchant for physical, exaggerated comedy. He also had a extremely distinctive, raspy voice, which could be called a crossing of Aldo Ray with Krusty the Clown from The Simpsons. In the 70's, Pyke's physical appearance was equally distinctive. Very short, slightly overweight, with a moustache and heavily balding head of wild black hair, he looked like the archetypal Mexican bandit of B-westerns or Sancho Panza (a role he was practically born to play and did, in The Erotic Adventures Of Don Quixote, 1976) come to life. No matter how brief his appearances were, he always, for better or worse, stole the scene he was in. Besides his film work, Pyke acted in theatre, musical revues, etc. He also wrote poetry (whether or not any was ever published in print is unknown) and plays. He was sometimes credited as Monty Pike, Hy Camp and Hy Pike. For additional trivia, Pyke was also romantically attached to the daughter of Ethel Merman, the late Ethel Jr., for several years.
