Teutonic tales of terror
Process of elimination
Starring Peter Lorre as the wild-eyed, whistling serial killer Hans Beckett, Fritz Lang's first sound film "M" (1931) masters the art of suspense and social critique. Less horror then crime thriller, Lang's modernist, anti-Fascist tour de force sees Berlin society thrown into disarray as the hunt for the mysterious child murderer casts each and every citizen as a potential murderer.
