The inimitable Klaus Kinski assumes the role of the most heinous criminal of modern history - Jack the Ripper - in this explicitly savage, wildly erotic version of the infamous tale from Europe's most notorious filmmaker, Jess Franco. Kinski stars as a sympathetic doctor by day who, when night falls, sheds his skin and stalks the shadowy streets of London as the prostitute-murdering Jack the Ripper. While Scotland Yard races to stop his bloody reign of terror, a young woman launches her own investigation and becomes the Ripper's next target. Co-starring Franco's longtime muse, the sensual Lina Romay, Jack The Ripper is one of the controversial director's finest films, presented here in a lush anamorphic widescreen transfer.
