More highly regarded these days than when it was released in 1971, Richard Fleischer's 10 Rillington Place is a grimly efficient treatment of a once-notorious case.
As infamous serial murderer John Reginald Christie, Richard Attenborough is just exaggerated enough to remain credible.
an unsettling reminder that, more often than not, it is not overly clever traps but rather people who kill people.
Deeply disturbing and probably the worst date movie ever made.
Not the fastest moving of films, but based on a true story, it's an intriguing watch. Attenborough was very good in this sinister role and for the time of it's release, it managed to show enough of the story to give a gruelling account of the case.
