Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThough not an adaption of original material by Edgar Wallace, this film was advertised in Germany as part of the famous Edgar Wallace Series. It was such a huge flop that the producers at Rialto Film decided to delay any future plans to do further Wallace films. Due to the great success of Dario Argento's The Bird with the Crystal Plumage (1970), which was advertised as an adaption of a story by Wallace's son Bryan Edgar Wallace, Rialto's series re-started in 1971.

Klaus Kinski being cast against type is certainly quite memorable, but when I think of this film I mostly recall the special effects for the train crash. Or rather the lack of them! Although the moment is brief it is blatantly obvious that we have a crash of a model train, and even more clearly a burning model train. This is the special effects school of early Japanese Godzilla movies!
