Tubby character actor Pat Ryan usually portrayed amusingly sleazy fat guys in a handful of enjoyable low-budget pictures made throughout the 1980s. Ryan was born on October 29, 1946 in Pennsylvania. He made his film debut with a small part in the gritty urban vigilante action opus
Fighting Back (1982). Pat was hilarious as the corrupt Mayor Belgoody in the sidesplitting Troma cult classic
The Toxic Avenger (1984). Ryan was likewise very funny as crooked nuclear power plant manager Mr. Finley in the uproarious
Class of Nuke 'Em High (1986) and was memorably disgusting as slimy junkyard owner Frank Schnizer in the outrageous
Street Trash (1987). Pat had his only substantial starring role as the cannibalistic humanoid extraterrestrial Murray Creature in the lowbrow science fiction comedy
Eat and Run (1986). He died of a heart attack on March 22, 1991.
