Hugo Stiglitz López (born August 28, 1940) is a Mexican actor, best known for his genre film roles in the 1970s and 80's.[1]
Early life and education
Stiglitz was born in Mexico City, to Austrian businessman Sigmund Stiglitz and his Argentine-born wife María de los Ángeles López. An avid footballer, Stiglitz originally tried out for the Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara's team, but failed to make the cut. He then studied civil engineering at the National Autonomous University of Mexico.[2]
Career
Stiglitz entered acting thanks to friendships with actors Pedro Armendáriz Jr. and Angélica María. He was discovered by director René Cardona Jr.
Stiglitz is perhaps most well known for his film roles in the 1970s and 1980s in Mexico in such horror films as Tintorera and Night of a Thousand Cats. During the 70s, he was considered a leading man alongside the likes of Jorge Rivero and Andrés García. He gained more international recognition for his roles in B-movies like Blood Feast (1972), Tintorera (1977), The Bermuda Triangle (1978), Cyclone (also 1978), and the Italian-Spanish co-production Nightmare City (1980). He also played a supporting role in American director John Huston's Under the Volcano (1984).
In 2011, he made his telenovela debut on Cielo rojo. He subsequently appeared on Secretos de familia.
In popular culture
Quentin Tarantino paid a tribute to him by naming a character "Hugo Stiglitz" (played by actor Til Schweiger) in the film Inglourious Basterds.[3]
