Genre - Horror, Thriller
Director - Richard Fleischer
Starring - Richard Attenborough, Judy Geeson, John Hurt

10 Rillington Place is a genuinely creepy and powerful film about the real life murder of Beryl Evans and her baby Geraldine. Husband Timothy was hanged for the murders in 1950 but it turned out his landlord John Christie was actually responsible. The Evans family were not his only victims, slow paced and brooding, this film gradually builds an atmosphere of intense creepiness largely through the amazing acting performance of Attenborough who is truly disturbing as the demented Christie. The violence is not graphic and there is nothing you´d describe as x-rated content yet this film is far more disturbing than your average horror.
