**Danny Williams** is an American actor who portrayed the dual roles of Ninnie (a friend of the enchanted Native American priestess Weescoosa) and Weenie (a member of the Bell Boys gang and sidekick to the rebel Lonesome Jack) in The Residents' unfinished feature film *Vileness Fats*, shot between 1972 and 1976 in their studio on Sycamore Street in San Francisco.

Though the film was never released, Williams is featured in the short edited versions later presented by The Residents; 1984's VHS featurette *Whatever Happened To Vileness Fats?* and the "concentrate" edit featured on the 2001 retrospective DVD compilation *Icky Flix*.
