MAD LOVE | HANDS OF ORLAC, THE
starstarstarstarstar
They don't come much weirder — or more entertaining. Combining Grand Guignol, surrealism and comedy to great effect, this 1935 creepy classic remains a chilling exercise in obsessive desire. Peter Lorre stars as a doctor with a serious crush on actress Francis Drake. When her pianist husband (Colin Clive) loses his hands in a railway accident, the love-crazed doctor gives him the hands of a recently executed knife-wielding murderer (Edward Brophy). The initially grateful patient can no longer play the piano, but he finds he can throw knives only too well. Read the complete review for Mad Love
