Fritz Lang's electrifying Das Testament des Dr. Mabuse [The Testament of Dr. Mabuse] is the astonishing second instalment in the German master's legendary Mabuse series, a film that puts image and sound into a hypnotic arrangement unlike anything seen or heard in the cinema before or since. It's been eleven years since the downfall of arch-criminal and master-of-disguise Dr. Mabuse (Rudolf Klein-Rogge), now sequestered in an asylum under the watchful eye of one Professor Baum (Oskar Beregi). Mabuse exists in a state of \"catatonic graphomania\", his only action the irrepressible scribbling of blueprints that would realise a seemingly theoretical \"Empire of Crime\". But when a series of violent events courses through the city, police and populace alike start asking themselves with increasing panic: \"Who is behind all this?!\" The answer borders on the realm of the impossible. Not only a follow-up to Lang's earlier Dr. Mabuse, der Spieler. [Dr. Mabuse: The Gambler], M, but also, with the presence of Otto Wernicke's Police Commissioner Lohmann, a semi-sequel to Lang's immortal masterpiece M, Das Testament des Dr. Mabuse is itself considered by many to be Lang's greatest achievement - a work of terrible and practically supernatural power that seems to have prophesied the implications of the Nazi scourge.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31727506194529,"sku":"5060000700091","price":13.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_1001788_999705.jpg?v=1740504670","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/5060000700091-testament-of-dr-mabuse","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
