MAN IN THE ATTIC (1953) - ♦♦♦

Directed by - Hugo Fregonese

Written by - Robert Presnell Jr., Barré Lyndon (based on a novel by Marie Belloc Lawndes)

Starring - Jack Palance

 

"Another screen adaptation of Lowndes’ novel The Lodger, which tells the tale of a mysterious pathologist suspected of being Jack the Ripper by his landlady. The suit isn’t very original, but it’s well made and well acted and plays well upon representing the character as an innocent man though all the evidence speaks against him."
