Featured review
Shot entirely at Hamburg in Germany as if it was in London, this movie portraits in smallest details the atmospheric London's fog nearby the Thames river, just using old stock footage in some sequences only, this turn the Scotland Yard's Inspector Wade (Joachim Fuchsberger) has to face an unexpected enemy intitled as Shark, due he acts disguised of scuba diver who has been perpetrating several robberies, murders and disappearing thru sewage network until Thames river.
Inspector Wade starts at harbor area where a famous lodging-Tabern-nightspot Mekka is set, looking for some clues to take on the unknown killer, there are many suspects as the owner of Mekka the cynical Mrs. Nelly Oaks (Elisabeth Flickenschildt) his bleak bartender Big Willy (Rudolf Fenner), an obscure Ship's owner Mr. Broen (Heinz Engelmann), the scarface thug Roger Lane (Jan Hendriks) and slippery lodger Gubanow (Klaus Kinski), otherwise in other pictures the funny character played by Eddi Arent now is a flamboyant water sports as Barnaby.
Aiming for spice up the story the Inspector Wade has a romantic affair with the gorgeous teenager Leila Smith (Brigitte Grothum), meanwhile he has a support of the police forensic Doctor Collins (Richard Munch), it sounds a complex plot about a supposed daughter from a wealthy British family that actually was dead in tender age, indeed a absorbent thriller.
Thanks for reading.
