One of the baddest of henchmen is approaching; it’s Taggart, played by Slim Pickens himself. Mel Brooks ’ hit 1974 film Blazing Saddles introduced audiences to some outrageous archetypes, with Pickens well suited to bringing the cowboy to life.
Taggart is pretty much your typical dumb henchman—think of him as a wild west Igor, or the Waylon Smithers of the frontier. But he's pretty good at following orders and treating the people beneath him like garbage, which is pretty much what you want in a henchman if you're Hedley Lamarr.
