McKinney is probably best remembered for the infamous "Squeal like a pig" mountain man in Deliverance, but he played a lot of memorable parts. He was great as Captain "Red Legs" Terrill in The Outlaw Josey Wales. According to his bio, he was a minesweeper crewman during the Korean War, too.

RIP, Mr. McKinney.

The Outlaw Josey Wales is my favorite movie of all-time hands down.

Liked him in Green Mile even though his role was very small.

The odds of Appalachin hillbillies being homosexuals is about as remote as possible here

The most undeserved stereotype ever...and one yankees adore to preen over

More queers in Burlington Vermont than in all of southern Appalachia

Baring Asheville....the dyke capital of America...but they are all from somewhere else

Yea, I hate the fact that Deliverance is the role most people will talk about. I just saw the other day about a movie part he had lost out on in early 70’s because the director feared people would remember him from Deliverance.
