The Amazing Dr. Clitterhouse
“... a thunderbolt of thrills and intrigue!”
CrimeDrama
A wealthy society doctor decides to research the medical aspects of criminal behaviour by becoming one himself. He joins a gang of thieves and proceeds to wrest leadership of the gang away from it's extremely resentful leader.
VIBE
A chillingly detached exploration of the criminal mind. It's a sophisticated, darkly comic look at a doctor's descent into sociopathy, wrapped in the slick style of early Hollywood crime dramas. Watch for the unsettling blend of wit and menace.
