:: The Krimi Collection ::
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krimi http://www.latarnia.com/krimi.htm
The German serial killer crime/mystery/thrillers, from the period of 1959-72, based on the novels by Edgar Wallace (later also on the ones by his son Bryan Edgar Wallace, as well as movies "in the same style"), sometimes influenced by gothic horror movies. They are reported as being one of the biggest influences on the Italian giallo genre and actually there are some krimis that are considered as gialli at the same time ("Double Face", "What Have You Done to Solange?", "Seven Blood-Stained Orchids" and "The Dead Are Alive").
| Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was one of the most popular authors of the 20th Century. He wrote a prodigious amount of criminal thrillers, written at a rapid pace (some started and finished in just a weekend!). Understandably, film producers took an early interest in his novels, and Wallace himself, fascinated by the new medium, became a director and screenwriter.
As an author of international repute, his books were popular in Germany in the 1920s onward, though banned during the Nazi years. Germany had already begun filming Wallace titles in 1927, but the Nazi era stopped any further production of such films. In 1959, inspired by the British Wallace film THE RINGER (1952), Preben Philipsen A/S and Rialto Film began making their first Edgar Wallace film, DER FROSCH MIT DER MASKE, based on Wallace's THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE FROG (1925). The German Edgar Wallace "krimi" was born. (A criminal or mystery thriller is called "krimi" in Germany.) Soon a familiar cadre of actors was inhabiting the Wallace krimi world: Joachim Fuchsberger, Heinz Drache, Siegfried Schurenberg, Siegfried Lowitz, Eddi Arent (providing comic relief), and that lovable maniac Klaus Kinski, best known to American audiences for his many films outside of the krimi genre. The jazzy, innovative music, provided by such composers as Martin Bottcher and Peter Thomas, added a contemporary hipness to stylish updates of stories decades old. It is these series of Rialto films, and a couple of other films made at the same time but from different producers, that represent "The German Edgar Wallace Films," and not any productions made in the 1920s or after the early 1970s.
Because of their national and international popularity, the Wallace krimis had many imitations, some involving Wallace's son, Bryan Edgar Wallace. In articles, online sites, discussions, and video catalogs, the Bryan Edgar Wallace krimis are frequently mistaken for films based on his father's work.
There was a substantial quotient of chilling and gruesome elements in many of these krimis, and it's not surprising that several were promoted in other countries as horror films, a sales pitch likewise used in the distribution of the Dr. Mabuse films, which shared stylistic elements and certain filmmaking talent with the Wallace thrillers. By the 1970s, the Wallace films began to merge with Italian thrillers (gialli), which clearly sought inspiration from their earlier German counterparts. Soon thereafter, the German Wallaces disappeared, done in, partially, by the competitive high production rate and unrepentant exploitation of the Italian filmmaking business.
Almost all of the German Wallace films were made available in English-dubbed versions for American audiences. Though a few saw theatrical exhibition, most were first seen on American television in the late 1960s and early 1970s, pruned of any nudity and a few distinctive elements, such as the typical introductory credit sequence of gunshots and a voiceover announcing, "Hallo, hier spricht Edgar Wallace! (Hello, this is Edgar Wallace speaking!)" Subsequently, public domain video companies released these edited films on video, sourced from 16mm elements, which did not do the films justice, but which at least kept a watchful flame burning for these important films. Germany has already released a fine video series of these films, and is beginning a superior DVD presentation. Unfortunately, all these have been presented without English-subtitles and, of course, in the European PAL format. Fortunately, American DVD releases of a few of these Wallace krimis loom in the distance, either as announced projects or speculation. |
I'll be adding only those movies which have English subs or English audio rips available.
ATTENTION! Some of the subs are not synchronized with the rips yet. You have to do it yourself. I strongly recommend using SubEdit-Player to do it. When you match them, please send them to me, and I'll update the list.

| Der grüne Bogenschütze (The Green Archer) (Jürgen Roland, 1961)
Rialto Film wrote: The American Abel Bellamy, who has a notoriously dark past, moves into "Garre" Castle in the outskirts of London. The rumour is spread, that a green archer does mischief around the premises . Some people actually become victims to mysteriously deadly arrows. Not only is Scotland Yard Inspector FeathersSounde on that case, also Bellamy's pretty niece Valerie does some investigating on her own. She is searching for her disappeared mother, whom Bellamy states, is dead. In reality he keeps her imprisoned at his castle. Since Bellamy is more and more irritated by the presence of Valerie, he has her kidnapped by one his evil aids. Then FeathersSounde falls in the trap...

| Der Zinker (The Squeaker) (Alfred Vohrer, 1963)
Opera Community wrote: A series of mysterious murders, committed by the poison of a black Mamba, puts London in distress. Scotland Yard's Superintendent Elford suspects that the "Squeaker" is behind the murders - the mysterious stranger, the underworld is afraid of and is unsuccessfully hunted by Scotland Yard. The clever mugger grabs his share of each robbery's loot, in return for not reporting the burglars to the police. Superintendent Elford's investigations lead him to a well-known animal wholesale business, where a Mamba was stolen. The former shopkeeper was blackmailed by the "Squeaker" and subsequently forced to death. His widow, the charming old Mrs. Mulford, now looks after dismissed convicts and has handed over the business to the obscure Frank SutSound. The suspicion focuses more and more on the sly animal keeper Krishna. But one morning he also disappears...

| Der Würger von Schloß Blackmoor (The Strangler of Blackmoor Castle) (Harald Reinl, 1963)
DVD Empire wrote: A hooded killer invades the Blackmoor estate, assaulting Lucius Clark and demanding the return of stolen diamonds. The phantom leaves behind a gruesome calling card - the murdered body of a groundskeeper, with the letter "M" marked on his forehead. An inspector arrives from Scotland Yard to catch the strangler and concludes that the murders are the work of a man with nine fingers. Clark's paranoia leads him to accuse his friends and servants. The case is at a standstill when two more disfigured corpses are discovered, but a parcel of hidden love letters provides the investigator with a clue he needs to pick up the trail of the strangler. A violent confrontation with the killer leads to the exposure of false identities and an uncovering of long-buried secrets.

| Der Bucklige von Soho (The Hunchback of Soho) (Alfred Vohrer, 1966)
Something Weird Video wrote: When Wanda Merville inherits a million bucks, she’s promptly kidnapped, replaced by a fake "Wanda," and spirited away to a school for delinquent girls. Sponsored by crazy General Perkins (who’s still fighting the Battle of Tobruck in his basement) and the General’s dotty wife Lady Marjorie ("Give me some whiskey... Straight!"), the school is actually run by evil, reptilian-faced Alan Oavis, the Reverend Dave (who sings church choirs in German), and a masculine matron with a riding crop who force the girls to work in a laundry sweat-shop that resembles something out of WHITE ZOMBIE. The more attractive young gals are sent to work as "hostesses" in Mrs. Tindle’s gambling club while the more rebellious are strangled by Harry the hunchback and his hilariously huge hump...

| Der Mönch mit der Peitsche (College Girl Murders) (Alfred Vohrer, 1967)
Amazon.com wrote: The groovalicious, swingin' '60s, complete with miniskirts and high-hopped hairdos, sets the stage for a red-robed monk and his killer whip in The College Girl Murders. A diabolical scientist cooks up a deadly gas and schemes to make millions. But, a midnight rendezvous with a shadowy benefactor goes awry. He soon finds himself "sent to the clouds," by the mysterious red monk's mighty white whip. The poisonous gas disappears. When an innocent college girl opens her Bible during church, noxious spray spews forth and kills her instantly. Sir John and Inspector Higgins are called in to investigate. The prime suspects include the headmistress' writer-brother and a nervous, sweaty-faced professor with a yen for young girls. Meanwhile, neck-snapped bodies begin popping up all over campus. Author Edgar Wallace, the creator of the original 1933 King Kong, concocts a fantasmic display of convoluted storytelling here, shimmied up against a beyond-groovy soundtrack that'll have you doing the watusi up until der finale ende.

| Das Rätsel des silbernen Halbmonds (Seven Blood-Stained Orchids) (Umberto Lenzi, 1972)
DVD Times wrote: An assassin is on the prowl, murdering women and leaving curious silver crescent moon-shaped pendants in their hands. He works fast, too. Within the space of two nights he has done away with an old woman, a prostitute and a young English artist, as well as made an attempt on the life of Giulia (Uschi Glas), a young lady who is engaged to fashion designer Mario (Antonio Sabato). Carrying out the attack on board a train, our daring killer is surprised by the ticket collector and scarpers, leaving Guilia for dead. She is, however, very much alive, but the police decide that, for her own safety, it would be better for the killer to think her dead, even going so far as to stage a funeral. Mario, however, is not one for resting on his laurels, and he and Giulia decide to track down the killer themselves. The film here gets complicated, as Giulia recognizes the crescent moon pendant as being identical to a key-ring owned by an American man she encountered at a hotel two years ago. It becomes apparent that all the victims are people who were staying in the hotel at that time, meaning that there is a grand total of seven women lined up on the chopping board. It becomes a race against time to track down the remaining targets before the killer, who always seems to be one step ahead...

Few of the subs is not longer available, because "napisy.org" is shutdown. Could you sharing the subs in other way (Emule, other subs site, etc)?
BTW.
Great Collections!
