A Harvard graduate Bryant was a successful producer and distributor of art films thats not a euphemism for pornography by the way but he also acted a bit when he felt like it and lent his deep voice and awful skin to four genre films Devil Doll Curse of the Voodoo The Projected Man and Tower Of Evil Brent was never a great actor but he certainly had presence and a very specific look and his short career as a leading man created some offbeat films that are greatly enhanced by his appearances in them Ultimately though Brent didnt really need the money or the exposure so he returned to his day job art films gain horrors loss He died in Paris France in 1996
