A frank exploration of voyeurism and violence, Michael Powell’s extraordinary film is the story of a psychopathic cameraman—his childhood traumas, sexual crises, and murderous revenge as an adult. Reviled by critics upon its initial release for its deeply unsettling subject matter, the film has since been hailed as a masterpiece. —The Criterion Collection

" First Viewing Viewing Date: January 5th Via: 4K Blu-ray Plot: A young man murders women, using a movie camera to film their dying expressions of terror. Rating: 7.9/10 Why Did I Watch It? When I rewatched Scream 4, the characters mentioned this movie as being the first slasher, which immediately put it on my radar. After picking up the 4K Blu-ray recently, I thought it best to jump on it promptly."

"21.5. Michael Powellin väärinymmärretyksi mestariteokseksi hehkutettu murhailu on oikeastaan vain todella roskaista ja kämäistä genre-elokuvaa, jossa murhaajana nähtävä Karlheinz Böhm tekee kaikkensa jäädäkseen kiinni. Rikostutkintaa johtava jäyhäleukainen poliisi miettii, että jotain on varmaankin pielessä, mutta kunpa vain hän tietäisi että mitä, kun Böhm kävelee hitaasti kameranjalustasta sojottava piikki tanassa kohti uhriensa kurkkuja. Koko homma on todella makaaberi"
