(1961) Joachim Fuchsberger, Karen Baal, Klaus Kinski, Andy Berber. In the early 1960's a large number of German films came out based on horror stories of Edgar Wallace. This is one of the best, a remake of Lugosi's THE HUMAN MONSTER. A monstrous, blind killer is on the loose in London! Wealthy, heavily insured men are being bumped off, one by one. What's the mysterious secret behind the killings? Fuchsberger is the Scotland Yard inspector who arrives on the scene, investigates, and finds clues that lead to a ring of blind men who led by a mysterious "reverend." Kinski's death scene is shocking and quite memorable. Transferred from a sharp 16mm original print.
