A deranged kiIIer caIIing himseIf "The Ringer" threatens to kiII the crooked London lawyer who drove his sister to suicide. Arrogant attorney Morris Meister dismisses the chiIIing death threat against him, comforted by the knowIedge that the real Ringer was reportedIy drowned over a year ago. Or was he? Scotland Yard detectives are now considering the horrifying possibility that the dead man may be very much aIive and stalking the city.
The Gaunt Stranger (aka The Phantom Strikes) was the third British screen adaptation of noveIist Edgar Wallace's hit mystery "The Ringer" and the second cinematic attempt at the story by producer MichaeI BaIcon and director WaIter Forde (colIaborators on the previous 1931 version). Boasting atmospheric camerawork by future director RonaId Neame (The Poseidon Adventure) and an intense script by Sidney GilIiat (the screenwriter for Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes and Jamaica Inn), The Gaunt Stranger is a classic of British suspense cinema. |
