Steve Clemente (born Esteban Clemento Morro November 22, 1885 – May 7, 1950) was a Mexican-American actor known for his many villainous roles.

He began acting in his teens, signing up for his first movie, The Secret Man, in 1917.

In 1922, he came to Hollywood to put on a knife demonstration for a disbelieving director.

He was trusted to throw knives in movies that had to land an inch or two away from a celebrity.

He later appeared in movies including The Most Dangerous Game (1932), playing Tartar, the second henchman of Count Zarrof and played the Witch doctor in King Kong (1933) and its sequel Son of Kong (1933).
