If you grew up watching movies from the 1980s, you’re probably very familiar with the work of Cyril O’Reilly. Born in California, the baby-faced actor got his start on the big screen playing a soldier in the classic comedy Airplane! (1980). Like all good, hardworking actors of his era, Cyril had a role in a horror flick, one that attempted to put a damper on birthdays: Bloody Birthday (1981). Cyril enjoyed small roles on the long forgotten TV thriller show Darkroom and on the legendary M*A*S*H. The dark-haired hunk hit it big with memorable roles in the carnal classics Porky’s (1982), which he gloriously strips nude in, showing off his butt, and Porky’s II: The Next Day (1983). Cyril’s career slowed a bit before reigniting and running the gamut on the television dial, getting small roles on the crime thriller Hunter; the courtroom drama Matlock; and the mystery series Murder, She Wrote. The 90s and 00s were filled with bit roles on television and the movies, most notably Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and The X-Files. Cyril will always be appreciate for his hilarious, embarrassing and impressive nude scene in Porky’s, a movie that encouraged many masturbatory moments.
