About The Master Blackmailer

For years, a blackmailer has been preying on the weaknesses of others throughout London. When Holmes hears of the utter misery this mystery man is creating, he adopts a campaign to thwart his evil scheming. The campaign astonishes Dr. Watson by its strangeness and finds Holmes falling in love.

Directed by Peter Hammond, The Master Blackmailer leans on a strong ensemble — Jeremy Brett, Edward Hardwicke, Robert Hardy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 1992.
