Celebrating those fine actors who have left a considerable mark on the movie industry but their appeal and often their obscurity and desire to work outside of the Hollywood trends has brought them only a cult legion of fans.

These are the actors who probably won’t have stars on the Hollywood boulevard named after them, books dedicated to their craft, multiple Oscars in their cabinet or celebrity gossip pages in Hello magazine.

Cult Actors is our way of saying thank you to those legends whose name you might not recognise but whose face is memorable. The feature is maintained by Tom Fallows whose Pocket Essential Guide to George A. Romero’s work hits stands in October.
