If you're a Svengoolie fan, then it's safe to say that you're already familiar with John Agar. He made a name for himself acting alongside John Wayne in movies like Sands of Iwo Jima, Fort Apache, and She Wore a Yellow Ribbon. Later in his career, he made a pivot to horror and sci-fi, often in the numerous B-movies popping up in the 1950s and '60s.
We've collected a handful of the many B-movies he appeared in over the years. Can you complete their names?

Missed only one., The only one I have never seen.
10 of 10. John Agar was a favorite.
8/10 nothing like watching a great Sci fi or horror B- movie!!!
7/10. Boy did he do a lot of terrible movies. All though I did like "Tarantula".
6 out of 10. I didn't do very well.
6/10 digging a hole with the mole people .
8/10... there are even some horror B movies even I won't watch... LOL😂
10/10 with two very lucky guesses.
6 out of 10... some were so obvious I second-guessed myself .....i watched too many of these as an 80s kid l;ol
10/10. That's embarrassing, considering how much I dislike John Agar. By far my least fave of all those blandly handsome square-jawed leading men in '50s/'60s scifi.
Shirley Temple liked him.
When he wasn't being a violent drunk who cheated on her, maybe.
8/10 :-)
4 really bad as i have seen a;l those movies
8 out of 10 and I've never seen any of them [heard of some, but never seen any]. So I suppose the answer to the title question is...well, yeah, I guess so...maybe...kinda...
8 for 10
I remember seeing a trailer for movie about a giant spider when I was very, very young. The movie was Tarantula and I was one year old when it came out.
10/10. This quiz about Shirley Temple's former husband was easy.
9 out of 10. Missed #9. I remember marking out for him when he popped up in Nightbreed.
Mole People is on Sven tonight 4/22.
I always wondered if Zontar, The Thing From Venus had a very shiny nose?
And if you ever saw it...you would probably run like hell...[no, that doesn't rhyme...]
8/10. the two I miissed I never heard of. Happy to say I own several of these! Planet Arous, Invisible Invaders, Puppet People are classic 50s sci fi. He was also in the Danish sci fi , Journey to the 7th Planet. Been a John Agar fan for years.
