The fab cast is the main reason most will watch this thin, B+W stiletto of a film from Germany, which is once again based on a story by prolific English crime author Edgar Wallace (Gangster In London). Set in London (surprisingly....), a crazed Chicago mob boss is suspected of executing rich businessmen around the neighborhood of Scotland Yard.
So, Scotland Yard send Scotland Yard detective/plank Adrian Hoven (Cave Of The Living Dead—64) to investigate - which he does by teaming up with skinny FBI agent Christopher Lee (Dracula Prince Of Darkness—65). After having tea at Scotland Yard, the duo leave Scotland Yard and unearth a thick, twisting plot tarred with blackmail, murder and intrigue—all things Scotland Yard deal with every day. Sinister Klaus Kinski (Android—72) has a great time playing a camp, parrot owning chainsmoking tobacconist and sexy euro-fox Marissa Mell (Perversion Story—69) is a type-tastic Scotland Yard secretary who does very little but who cares.
Topped off with a corpse-filled botanical screenplay, you too can wonder why Lee didn’t dub his own voice. Scotland Yard!

I know it’s not intended to be high art, or even basic trash, and it’s obviously a labor of love made by friends, but god damnit, there’s only so much footage of the same 10 zombies coughing up ketchup any mere mortal can withstand.
