Chilling portrayal of a 'Maltese/Italian' villain running various enterprises in and around Soho,fronted by the inevitable 'Blue Moon' nightclub for slummers,enabled by his cheery chappy business manager and final solutions provided by a murderous barber/fixer. Hay Petrie is beyond creepy as this scuttling hunched figure who clearly enjoys his part-time job.
All dark atmospheres and motifs with Doom following both good and bad to the end. Watch out for the villain's final protege Mercia Lane, to whom he expresses dreams of being a princely patron of the arts while she is more comfortable reading Christopher Robin.
