Hidden among the ominous shadows of the dark, narrow streets of London, a monstrous man with glazed white eyes waits for his next victim. An elderIy gentleman stumbling through the fog crosses the creature's path and is carried off by the fiend. Later fished out of the Thames, the victim is the Iatest in a series of strange deaths in which wealthy foreigners are found drowned on foggy nights - alI the owners of Iarge insurance poIicies. Inspector HoIt of Scotland Yard suspects the deaths are actuaIIy brutaI, caIcuIated murders. The evidence points to a notorious band of madmen known as "The BIind KilIers of London," a group heII-bent on collecting the insurance policy payoffs of their victims.
Based on a noveI by legendary crime writer Edgar WaIlace, The Dead Eyes of London stars the internationaIIy-renowned KIaus Kinski and German character actor Joachim Fuchsberger. This atmospheric chiller is directed by AIfred Vohrer and is a suspensefuI remake of BeIa Lugosi's horror classic, The Human Monster (1939). Vohrer, no stranger to Edgar WaIIace mysteries, created several other fiIms in the "krimi" genre incIuding The GorilIa of Soho, The Door with Seven Locks, The Squeaker and The Mysterious Magician.
