Urquidez cameoed as a kickboxer in the Troma film "Ragin' Cajun". The movie, filmed in 1988 and released in 1991, wrongfully asserted that it featured Urquidez's first film appearance, stating in the opening credits, "Introducing Benny 'The Jet' Urquidez". He appeared in the 1989 film "Roadhouse" as one of the fighters seen at a car dealership which is partially destroyed in elaborately choreographed mayhem. He trained Patrick Swayze in his own fighting techniques for the film. Urquidez appears in the 1991 film "Blood Match", and in 1992, he played a referee in the James Woods and Louis Gossett, Jr. film "Diggstown". He has a cameo appearance in the movie "Street Fighter" (1994), playing one of several prisoners put in a truck with Ken, Ryu, Sagat and Vega. Urquidez was also responsible for the physical training of most of the "Street Fighter" cast. He was set to play a different character in the franchise, Raven, in a game based on the movie, but the character was later scrapped.
