Over the last week or so a couple of members of this thread have expreesed that they have never seen a Paul Naschy film. If you have any interest in Euro cult/horror then Paul Naschy is as essential viewing as Fulci/Argento/Lenzi etc.
Jacinto is most famous to Uk viewers for his film Werewolf & the Yeti which was one of the infamous 39 video nasties. He made a career out of playing Waldemar Daninsky a polish count who was also a Werewolf. This character first appeared in Frankensteins bloody terror, and has appeared in around 12 films to date, and quite openly states that it was inspired by Lon Chaney JR
Jacinto was born in Madrid in 1934 and spent was a national weightlifting/body building champion before going into films.
