Description by OLDIES.com:

After covering horror film icons - Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney, Jr. and Vincent Price - Midnight Marquee Press wanted to go in a slightly different direction for their fifth edition of the Midnight Marquee Actors Series, by highlighting quasi-"horror man," Peter Lorre.

While the other entries in the series were predominantly horror film actors, Peter Lorre made many horror film appearances, but was never actually considered a horror film star. Instead, it was Lorre's persona, that of a quirky, deviant little man, sometimes charming, sometimes boiling over with venom, that made him a perfect match for horror films. However, Lorre also played opposite such mainstream stars as Clark Gable, Humphrey Bogart, Sydney Greenstreet, Kirk Douglas, Mickey Rooney and Bob Hope. Lorre felt just as comfortable enacting supporting roles in A films as he did starring in the Bs. It is pleasing to see this talented and versatile performer included in the acclaimed Actors Series.
