Secret of the Blue Room (aka GEHEIMNIS DES BLAUEN ZIMMERS)

This fine German old dark house chiller actually pre-dates the classic 1933 Universal film of the same name. So it's apparent the Universal version was actually a remake. We all know the story: horrible murders occur in a "haunted" room in a mysterious chateau riddled with mysterious characters and secret passageways. This film, certainly in some scenes, surpasses its Universal counterpart and really packs a wallop. A great script, redone many times over the years. Way cool! In German with English subs.
