Omar Doom is an American actor, musician, and visual artist whose work spans film, music, and painting. While many audiences recognize him for portraying Private First Class Omar Ulmer in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds (2009), Doom has built a creative career that extends well beyond acting. His artistic projects are united by a fascination with horror, underground culture, and bold visual storytelling.
As an actor, Doom has appeared in a variety of genre films and television projects, often gravitating toward horror, action, and crime stories. His collaborations with Quentin Tarantino introduced him to a global audience, while later roles continued to showcase his interest in darker, unconventional cinema.
Outside of film, Doom is the founder of the dark electronic music project STRAIGHT RAZOR. Drawing from industrial, EBM, darkwave, and techno, the project combines driving electronic rhythms with cinematic atmosphere and horror-inspired aesthetics. Through his independent label, Doom Vision Records, he has released albums, EPs, and remixes while collaborating with artists across the industrial and alternative electronic music scenes.
Doom is also an accomplished painter whose artwork reflects many of the same influences found throughout his film and music careers. Horror cinema, vintage genre films, pulp imagery, and surrealism frequently appear in his work, creating a visual style that complements the dark atmosphere of his musical projects.
By moving comfortably between acting, music, and visual art, Omar Doom has established himself as a multidisciplinary creator whose work consistently celebrates the strange, stylish, and unsettling. Whether appearing on screen, producing music, or creating artwork, he continues to explore the intersection of horror, alternative culture, and contemporary art.
