When middle-aged milquetoast Chris Cross (Edward G. Robinson) rescues street-walking bad girl Kitty (Joan Bennett) from the rain slicked gutters of Greenwich Village, he plunges headlong into a whirlpool of lust, larceny, and revenge. Scarlet street is Fritz Lang's 1945 remake of Jean Renoir's 1931 La chienne.

In 1949, at Republic Pictures, Fritz Lang (self-proclaimed "master of the unusual") created House by the river, a shocking and mordant thriller of passion and murder. Boasting an ingenious script by Spiral staircase scribe Mel Dinelli and evocative photography by Edward Cronjager (I wake up screaming), House ... is an underrated American "Grand Guignol" that transcends its modest origins and affirms Lang's genius.

Fritz Lang's elaborate superspy thriller is at last restored to its proper length.

With this exotic adventure film, director Fritz Lang established himself as a master of epic storytelling, a talent that would reach its pinnacle in such monumental films as Metropolis and Die Nibelungen. Influenced by the French serials of Louis Feuillade (Fantômas) and infused with Lang's own fascination with Asian culture, The spiders follows international adventurer Kay Hoog (Carl de Vogt) in his quest for Incan gold and the precious "Buddha's head" diamond. Along the way, he must contend with an organization of criminal spies known as The Spiders, who will employ any form of treachery, including murder, to snatch the artifacts from his possession.

Fritz Lang's ambitious spectacle that dramatizes the first lunar expedition.
