Dead Eyes of London

Originally titled Die Toten Augen von London, this German melodrama is the second film version of Edgar Wallace's The Testament of Gordon Stewart. Klaus Kinski takes the old Bela Lugosi role as the seemingly kindly blind man, who covertly controls a sinister criminal organization comprised of sightless henchmen. Actually, Kinski isn't blind at all, but the police are (figuratively speaking) until lovely Karin Baal foils the villain's scheme. Dead Eyes of London was released in the US in 1965 as Dark Eyes of London.
