Ian is joined by academic and writer Dr Adrian Smith and Krimi afficionado Holger Hasse to discuss the work of Edgar Wallace on screen. While a single podcast episode can in no way do justice to the sheer volume of adaptations of his work we cover three very different films that highlight the huge influence Wallace had on screen.

Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was a prolific British writer. With 170 novels and 957 short styories his works have been adapted over 160 times for the big screen. Numerous adaptations for TV have also been produced. He continues to be credited today for his work on King Kong!

The Dark Eyes of London aka The Human Monster (1939). Directed by Walter Summers. Based on the novel The Dark Eyes of London by Edgar Wallace. Starring Bela Lugosi, Hugh Williams and Greta Gynt.
