"The city of Paris is terrified due to the ghastly murders all attributed to 'The Wolf', a notorious killer. What the public doesn't know is 'The Wolf' is actually a respected aristocrat who hides his criminal activities under his false guise. The fiendish man is plotting to use the murders as a cover for a series of bank robberies
" according to the DVD sleeve's synopsis.
Once again, fiendish Tod Slaughter (as Chevalier Lucio del Gardo) is pining for nubile young Marjorie Taylor (as Cecile de Brisson), but she has fallen in love with penniless bank clerk John Warwick (as Lucien Cortier). Yes, it sounds a lot like the plot of several other Slaughter films, especially "The Ticket of Leave Man" (1937), which had Mr. Slaughter (as "The Tiger"), threatening to come between the same co-stars. The other film is more fun, and more British; this story had more potential, but is obviously lacking.
**** The Face at the Window (4/39) George King ~ Tod Slaughter, John Warwick, Marjorie Taylor
