IMDb mini-biography byJim Beaver
Mini Biography-2
from Leonard Maltin's Movie Encyclopedia:
This gaunt, deep-voiced Shakespearean actor would be a safe choice to win any competition for Most Movies Ever Made. A classically trained stage actor of the bravura school, he relished showy character parts, no matter how minor the footage; he can truly be said to have believed the old adage, "There are no small roles, only small actors." Carradine wasn't above chewing a little scenery here and there, and left unrestrained he frequently could be seen going over the top. But when handled by a great director-say, John Ford, for whom Carradine was extremely effective-he delivered brilliant performances. He can be glimpsed in bit roles in the early 1930s, in everything from The Sign of the Cross (1932) to such Universal horror classics as The Black Cat (1934) and Bride of Frankenstein (1935).
In the late 1930s, Carradine worked virtually nonstop in dozens of films, including such John Ford landmarks as Stagecoach, Drums Along the Mohawk (both 1939), and The Grapes of Wrath (1940), as well as Captains Courageous (1937), Jesse James, The Hound of the Baskervilles (both 1939), and Blood and Sand (1941). In the 1940s, he renewed his association with Universal horror films, playing Dracula in House of Frankenstein (1944) and House of Dracula (1945), as well as starring in Captive Wild Woman (1943), The Mummy's Ghost and The In visible Man's Revenge (both 1944); he also gave one of his best performances, oddly, in the title role of Bluebeard (1944) over at the tiny PRC studio.
After the war, Carradine found himself mostly limited to smaller roles, playing everything from a handyman in Johnny Guitar (1954) to Moses' brother in The Ten Commandments (1956), and began an association with the cheap, independent horror film that lasted until his death; among the relatively more amusing were The Incredible Petrified World (1958), Billy the Kid vs. Dracula (1966, as Dracula), Hillbillys in a Haunted House (1967), Terror in the Wax Museum (1973), Satan's Cheerleaders (1977), and The Monster Club (1980). Carradine's more distinguished later films include The Last Hurrah (1958), Cheyenne Autumn (1964), The Last Tycoon, The Shootist (both 1976), The Howling (1981), and Peggy Sue Got Married (1986), and he provided a voice for The Secret of NIMH (1982). Three of his sons-David, Keith, and Robert-have followed in his footsteps.
