Die lebenden Leichen des Dr. Mabuse

Seaside flats, midnight rain drumming gutters. A man’s silhouette melts into shadow; only the scrape of his blade against concrete breaks the hush. Inside a doll-littered mansion, a white-coated figure decants crimson into graduated cylinders while a heartbeat monitor blips erratically. Hessler tightens the screws on 70s Euro-horror before the genre’s first self-aware kill.
