BIOGRAPHY

John Lazar, a San Francisco native and trained actor, first caught the attention of cult film aficionados with his unforgettable portrayal of the flamboyant Ronnie 'Z-Man' Barzell in Russ Meyer's "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" (1970). This role set the stage for his subsequent appearances in memorable cult classics, particularly his turn as the sleazy pimp Carl McKinney in "Supervixens" (1975). Collectors value these performances for their over-the-top qualities that embody the essence of 1970s exploitation cinema, making these films sought-after gems in any physical media collection. While Lazar's career includes a range of quirky roles, such as the villainous sorcerer Jarek in "Deathstalker II" (1987) and a recurring role on the soft-core series "Click," it's his unique charm and eccentricity that have solidified his status among collectors. His work not only encapsulates the spirit of campy cinema but also highlights a pivotal era in film history, making his releases essential for any serious collector looking to explore the wild side of home video entertainment.
