'Peter Malota (born Peter Malota Lulgjuraj in Lofka in Malësia, Albania on 28 August 1958) is best known for his appearances in 3 films starring Jean-Claude Van Damme. In 1985, Peter made his film debut as a member of a syndicate gang in the action movie Los Angeles Streetfighter. In 1991, Peter began to work with Van Damme. The first on the 3 films was 1991's Double Impact, where he played an assassin with kicking skills with knives in his shoes. The second movie would be Nowhere to Run, in which he is seen playing the convict Van Damme tries to free, but is killed. His last movie was 1996's The Quest.
