Oddjob is a henchmen to the villain,
Auric Goldfinger in the

Goldfinger. Played by the
Korean American,
Harold Sakata, Oddjob was silent and never said a word throughout the entire film. He is skilled in martial arts; his trademark weapon is a steel-brimmed bowler hat which he throws with deadly effect. In the film he is responsible for the death Tilly Masterson, whom he decapitates while she attempted to escape on foot by throwing his hat.
He's also extremely strong, showing off his strength in a number of scenes, including one where he squishes a golf ball in his bare hand. He was outmanuevered when Bond threw his hat into some metal bars in the Fort Knox vault. When Oddjob reached to retrieve his hat, Bond used a severed live electrical cable to electrifiy the bars causing a deadly current to run from the bars, to the hat, to Oddjob, killing him.
