A friend sent me this pic and asked me who this guy is. I remember him as usually a bad guy in tv shows and movies but I can't remember which. Pretty much always the bad guy. I specifically remember him playing a russian bad guy. Anyone remember who this guy is or what movie or tv shows he appeared in. It's just nagging the crap out of me trying to figure it out.

Searched "80's guys with cheesy mustaches". Came up with quite a list. This may take a while.
 
Thats William Smith- I remember him in Red Dawn, Conan the Barbarian and the Clint Eastwood movie with Clyde- and a bunch of other stuff in the 80's when I was growing up.

Red Dawn is what I was remembering him as the bad guy russian. Thanks PoS.
 
In my OP pic... I particularly like how he's holding the bazooka backwards just so he could look tough one-handing it.
 
Anyone want to take a stab at guessing who the woman is on the left? She also looks familiar.

It kind of looks like Kay Parker but that might just be my imagination due to her "kissing the gun" pose.

Oh great. A NSFW tag would've been nice there.

William Smith. I think he might be most famous for playing Falconetti in "Rich man Poor Man"
 
It's all coming together now.

That image in the OP is a movie called "Seven" made in 1979. Which clarifies who the lady is. Barbara Leigh.

That movie looks so horrific in the most fabulous way. I just might have to watch it.

I may be wrong but I think he was in the later episodes of the original Hawaii 5-0
