Halloween Movie Night No. 25: The Hands of Orlac (1924)
Needcoffee.com (Free subscription) | 10/25/2009
We've been to 1920's The Golem and the original 1925 Phantom of the Opera--that means Day 25 is silent film horror night! And since we've visited the Peter Lorre remake, Mad Love, we'll go to Conrad Veidt with the original 1924 Hands of Orlac (although it apparently never made it stateside until 1928). [...]

Page 40 starts coverage of an event from the relatively then-recent FM convention, where one of the mag's readers did some demonstrations of make-up! Pretty cool stuff, even if the forehead of that Frankenstein...

The song above is the title track from their most recent album, Addicted to Bad Ideas: Peter Lorre's Twentieth Century , a concept piece centered around the life of character actor Peter Lorre, best known for his roles in Casablanca and The Maltese Falcon .

Mad Love is a 1935 horror movie directed by Karl Freund and starring Peter Lorre , Colin Clive and Ted Healy . I enjoy Peter Lorre.

... sect Cryptomancy from Unknown Armies. Comics bag this week was much better than last week. Watched Peter Lorre's 1935 _Mad Love_. His costume at the end of smoked goggles, metal gloves and a neck brace was surprisingly creepy. Of course the costume had Peter Lorre inside it.

German expressionism meets film noir meets Saturday morning cartoon funnies. Quickdraw Noir. "The rare noir episode of Quickdraw McGraw that featured Peter Lorre. With music by Andy Prieboy." Created by the great Merrill Markoe, who is perhaps best known as David Letterman's original head writer -- she won 5 Emmys for the show. She oughta get one for this, IMHO. (Thanks, Susannah...
