Testament Of Dr. Mabuse/ The Crimes Of Dr. Mabuse Full Description
This remake of Fritz Lang's 1932 classic (1962, 85 min.) has been masterfully updated for the Cold War and is one of the best films in the Dr. Mabuse series. Gert Frobe (Goldfinger), Wolfgang Preiss ("War and Remembrance") and pop star Senta Berger star in this heady blend of film noir, horror, and science-fiction. The super-criminal Dr. Mabuse is at it again, masterminding an international organization of thieves and murderers--all from within his cell in a Berlin insane asylum. Digitally restored from original studio negatives. Additional feature presentation: "The Crimes of Dr. Mabuse," the 90 minute English-dubbed alternate version of Fritz Lang's 1932 original.
