PHANTOM FIEND, THE(AKA: THE LODGER)(1932)
In the set: 100 Greatest Mystery Classics


Horrible sound! Picture skips a lot! Being Brittish
with their heavy accents doesn't help at all! Story
is very good! A new tennant at a boarding house,
a bunch of murders happening and the telephone
operator who's the daughter of the landlord
overhears a scream the same time of one of the
murders! B-

A review from IMDb.com:

Lodger, The (1932)

** (out of 4)

The first remake of Alfred Hitchcock's 1927
film of the same title. A serial killer is
running through London at the same time as
a strange young man (Ivor Novello) shows up
at a boarding house. Even though this thing
runs a small 60+ minutes it feels like three
hours because the pacing is so incredibly
slow and boring. The acting is among the
worst I've ever seen and the performance
by Novello is incredibly bad. I could help
but laugh at his acting, which is so bad
it almost seems like he's spoofing the
film. - MartinTeller
