Herbert Lom (Czech pronunciation: [ɦɛrbɛrt lom]; 11 September 1917 – 27 September 2012) was a Czech-born British film and television actor who moved to the United Kingdom in 1939. In a career lasting more than 60 years he appeared in character roles, usually portraying villains early in his career and professional men in later years.
Lom was noted for a precise, elegant enunciation of English. He is best known for his roles in The Ladykillers and The Pink Panther film series.
Lom was born Herbert Charles Angelo Kuchačevič ze Schluderpacheru in Prague to Karl Kuchačevič ze Schluderpacheru, and his spouse, the former Olga Gottlieb. Lom himself claimed that his family had been ennobled and the family title dated from 1601. Lom's film debut was in the Czech film Žena pod křížem ("A Woman Under Cross", 1937) followed by the Boží mlýny ("Mills of God", 1938). His early film appearances were mainly supporting roles, with the occasional top billing. At this time he also changed his impractically long surname - to Lom ("a quarry" in Czech), because it was the shortest he found in a local phone book.

Another little scene from Jess Franco's low budget adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula. In this scene Count Dracula (Christopher Lee) tries to claim Mina (Maria Rohm) but is confronted by Professor Van Helsing (Herbert Lom). I decided to put this scene, because it's the only one showing Dracula and Van Helsing in the same scene. Even though the great actors Lee and Lom were not filming this at the same time.
Charles Dreyfus makes Clouseau's funeral speech.
This stylishly photographed horror movie centers upon a beautiful, good-hearted schoolteacher whose life becomes a living hell after she is chosen to bear the son of Satan. Her horrible ordeal begins when an ancient enigmatic traveller places an ancient, supposedly extinct, insect up her nose. It crawls into her brain. She soon begins having terrifying dreams and more. When she learns the awful truth about her relationship with the Dark Master things get even worse. Still the baby is born and the poor woman faces a terrible and, genre-wise, surprising choice.

The Dual Alibi (1947) Director: Alfred Travers. Cast: Herbert Lom, Phyllis Dixey, Terence De Marney, Ronald Frankau English subtitles on open subtitles org This is a very fine and interesting film noir — among the better films of post-war British cinema. The story with twin trapeze artists might be a bit far-fetched in some aspects, but the opening of the film is brilliant, as is the ending. The photography is in beautiful dark tones and the music accompanying the trapeze acts is excellent. Herbert Lom is convincing in the role of both twins. I think the merit of his subtle performance lies above all in not exaggerating too much the difference in character between the two twins. Extreme characterization is normally a much easier option for an actor or actress when one thinks of other famo...

An excellent British movie from 1948 with Jean Kent in particularly good form as a 16 year old (at her own age of 27!), and also starring Dennis Price (was there a film of the period he wasn't in?!), Flora Robson, Herbert Lom, Griffith Jones, in another of his viciously nasty roles, and Bonar Colleano. The film is awash with character actors of the period, some who went on to greater things, and includes Diana Dors, Beatrice Varley, Hugh McDermott, Peter Glenville, the (almost) ever-present Amy Veness, Jill Balcon (mother of Daniel Day-Lewis), Nora Swinburne, Michael Hordern, Garry Marsh, John Blythe, Danny Green, Jane Hylton, and Zena Marshall. In the film Flora Robson's probationary officer uses Kent's downfall story as an example to try to prevent miscreant Diana Dors from falling into ...

On Customs and Excise duty in Felixstowe, Bob and Dave manage to get themselves trapped in the back of a pilchard lorry -- and Bob hates pilchards. A tenuous line of reasoning brings Dave to the conclusion that they must be in Venice -- when in fact they're in Amsterdam. Unbeknownst to them, they are also in possession of a large quantity of diamonds that had been smuggled there in the lorry -- attracting the attention of the "wrongful owners"... Guest starring Herbert Lom.

Actor, Herbert Lom, best known for playing Charles Dreyfus in the Pink Panther films, has died aged 95. Lom appeared in more than 100 films during his 60-year acting career, including such classics as The Ladykillers, Spartacus and El Cid. But it is playing the character of an irritable boss, who becomes increasingly unstable, opposite Peter Sellers, as the hapless Inspector Clouseau, that showed Lom's comedy acting genius. Watch out for this classic comedy fall. Take a look at this laughing gas scene, one of the best loved scenes Sellers and Lom shot. He made a speciality of playing the sinister character in a string of low-budget horror films, including a number of Hammer studio productions, playing the Phantom in their production of The Phantom of the Opera. And it is this range that...

Herbert Lom as Chief Inspector Dreyfus
Charles Dreyfus makes a TV interview about Clouseau
Věra Ferbasová a Herbert Lom v meziválečném komediálním melodramatu. Rozhodně se nevyplácí přivdat se do obhroublého dělnického prostředí. To záhy zjistí křehká a citlivá hrdinka, na níž těžce doléhá sobectví a bezohlednost jak manžela, tak tchyně. Zato její sestra si spokojeně žije ve šťastném manželství, i když se do ní platonicky zamiluje již dospělý nevlastní syn. Toho si zahrál debutující Herbert Lom, pozdější hvězda příběhů o popleteném komisaři Clouseauovi.

Police inspector Dreyfuss (Herbert Lom) is prepared to make an arrest -- and then the gloriously, monumentally inept Inspector Clouseau (Peter Sellers) arrives on the scene.
