In films from 1952, thin-necked, crew-cutted AlvyMoore was typecast as snoops, unwanted suitors and general, all-around pests.
Moore did get to break away from his usual assignments in such roles as a motorcycle bum in The Wild One (1953) and Debbie Reynolds' boyfriend in Susan Slept Here (1954).
A prolific TV guest star, Moore was hilarious as the faux IRS agent Handlebuck in the Emmy-winning Dick Van Dyke Show episode "The Impractical Joke." Fans of the sitcom Green Acres (1965-71) will remember Moore best as self-contradictory agricultural agentHank Kimball a role he reprised in a 1990 reunion film.
Moore headed for Hollywood and was soon appearing in a number of Universal's 'B' features, including The Missing Guest (1938; with Paul Kelly and William Lundigan), Buck Rogers (1939; with Buster Crabbe, and You Can't Cheat an Honest Man (1939; with W.C. Fields and Edgar Bergen).
Beautiful Joanna Moore acted in several B movies from the late 1950s through the late 1960s, including Monster on the Campus (1958; with Troy Donahue) and Follow That Dream (1962; with Elvis Presley).
Moore was actor Ryan O'Neal's first wife and the mother of Tatum O'Neal and Griffin O'Neal.
AlvyMoore, an actor whose best-known role was that of Hank Kimball on the television series ''Green Acres,'' died here last Sunday.
Moore worked from 1965 to 1971 on ''Green Acres,'' which starred Eddie Albert and Eva Gabor as an affluent couple from Manhattan who bought a rundown farm outside the town of Hooterville.
Moore'smovie credits included ''Susan Slept Here'' (1954), ''Annapolis Story'' (1956), ''Screaming Eagles'' (1957), ''The Wackiest Ship in the Army'' (1961) and ''Herbie Rides Again'' (1975).
The show was about a rich New York City couple who decide to buy and run a farm in the wacky and surreal town of Hooterville.
Kimball was an unusual, perhaps unique, comic creation (played by AlvyMoore) who was a friendly, helpful but scatterbrained man apparently educated past his intelligence.
Like most Green Acres characters he didn't start out as confused and scatterbrained.

He attacks her, strings up her naked corpse, slashes her throat with a knife, and collects her blood in an urn.
THE WITCHMAKER places psychic reseracher Dr. Hayes (AlvyMoore), a handful of his students, and magazine reporter Vic (Anthony Eisley) in Luther's swampy homeland, just as a new spate of killings terrorizes the area.
Producers L.Q. Jones and AlvyMoore followed THE WITCHMAKER with two outstanding and strange efforts, BROTHERHOOD OF SATAN (1971) and A BOY AND HIS DOG (1975).

The producers AlvyMoore and L. Jones (who also directed) were unable to find any area deserted enough to be used for this sort of scenario, and they certainly couldn't afford to pay for an area to be evacuated and prepared for the length of filming that would be necessary.
Instead they chose to film in a desert area of California (which stood in for the Phoenix, Arizona area) and then simply stated that after the nuclear war the city had been covered with a combination of ash and dirt.

Some of the other gags are a little weak, such as the constant jokes about Lisa's inability to cook, and some surprising ethnic slurs directed at Mexicans.
But the performances all the way around more than make up for it, with an endearing earnestness combined with cluelessness (especially the inspired work of AlvyMoore as the easily-distracted countyagent, Hank Kimball and Tom Lester's enthusiastic turn as Eb).
