Wealthy people are getting notes from "The Patrons of the Rich" offering "protection" for a large sum... and those who don´t pay wind up brutally murdered! Inspector Weston of Scotland Yard is joined by the FBI´s Cpt. Allerman (Star Wars´ Christopher Lee) to expose the deadly secrets of London´s underworld, where every dark street corner could be hiding a vicious killer bent on protecting The Mystery of the Red Orchid! Based on a novel by the popular Edgar Wallace, this stylish installment in the continuing series of German krimi thrillers features a great scene where "Two-Gun Lee" deals with a gangster hitman. Also featuring Klaus Kinski (For a Few Dollars More), Marisa Mell (Danger: Diabolik), and Adrian Hoven (Mark of the Devil).
Then the spirit of Jack the Ripper seems to be very much alive in 1960s London as a series of brutal slayings by the Monster of London City has Scotland Yard baffled. In a macabre coincidence, a new play about the famous murderer is about to become a major West End hit... and the leading man is rapidly becoming the prime suspect!
