DER HENKER VON LONDON-THE MAD EXECUTIONERS (1963)

This film was my introduction to German Krimi (mystery or crime thriller) films. The atmosphere is very close to a horror film and the story draws you in. Anything by Edgar Wallace is recommended. 
The stunning Maria Pershy, who went on to star in The Ghost Galleon and Exorcismo.

    Really cool post Roy! Great screen captures. Now I want to see it.
    The only krimi I think I've ever watched was 1961's The Dead Eyes of London (with Joachim Fuchsberger)...good fun flick
    best,

    Thanks R/E,
    I'll be sure to check out The Dead Eyes of London. It's a new genre for me thanks to my buddy Frank over at Laughing Reindeer. http://laughingreindeer.blogspot.com/
