Among Golden Age Hollywood film stars of European heritage known
for playing characters from the East--Chinese, Southeast Asians,
Indians and Middle Easterners--Anglo-Indian actor Boris Karloff had
deep roots there. Based on extensive new research, this biography
and career study of Karloff's "eastern" films provides a critical
examination of 41 features, including many overlooked early roles,
and offers fresh perspective on a cinematic luminary so often
labeled a "horror icon." Films include The Lightning Raider (1919),
14 silent films from the 1920s, The Unholy Night (1929), The Mask
of Fu Manchu (1932), The Mummy (1932), John Ford's The Lost Patrol
(1934), the Mr. Wong series (1938-1940), Targets (1968), and Isle
of the Snake People (1971), one of six titles released
posthumously.
