Lance Fuller is an American actor, best known for his roles in the films The Hills Have Eyes and The Hills Have Eyes II.

Fuller was born in Hollywood, California, on September 15, 1953, the son of actress Lois Nettleton and actor Bob Fuller. He has two sisters, Tracy and Amy. His father was of English, Scottish, and Irish descent, and his mother was of Swedish and Finnish ancestry.

Fuller was educated at the prestigious Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles. He began his acting career in the early 1970s, appearing in guest roles on such television shows as The Mod Squad and The Waltons. His film debut came in 1977 with a small role in the film Rollercoaster.

Fuller’s big break came in 1981 when he was cast as Michael Landon in the film The Hills Have Eyes. The film was a critical and commercial success, and Fuller’s performance earned him a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor. He reprised his role in the sequel, The Hills Have Eyes II, in 1985.

Fuller has since appeared in a number of films and television shows, including The A-Team, Star Trek: Voyager, and CSI: Miami. He has also had roles in such films as The Phantom of the Opera (1989), The Doors (1991), and The Specialist (1994).

Fuller’s net worth is estimated to be $3 million. He has been married twice; first to actress Daphne Ashbrook from 1984 to 1985, and then to actress Catherine Hickland from 1989 to 1991. He has two daughters, Ashley and Brittany.
