Viewing Notes

Revisited this one from a not very good file I had… easily the worst of the bunch I’ve collected, definitely need a better version. Had to view in a smaller screen via my macbook to have to appear decent. And it’s such a fun one as well. When I first viewed this, I mistook it for a krimi but it is not by definition. Altho, honestly I don’t really care… the book was written by Bryan, Edgar Wallace’s son. But if you didn’t know you’d just think it was another krimi with this cast and the entire movie with the hooded serial killer and the castle plus the gorgeous Karin Dor. I’m gonna tag it as such bc it does fit with the Wallace adaptations.
