About The Face of Fu Manchu
Grisly strangulations in London alert Nayland Smith of Scotland Yard to the possibility that fiendish Fu Manchu may not after all be dead, even though Smith witnessed his execution. A killer spray made from Tibetan berries seems to be involved and clues keep leading back to the Thames.
Directed by Don Sharp, The Face of Fu Manchu leans on a strong ensemble — Christopher Lee, Nigel Green, Joachim Fuchsberger — 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 crime titles of 1965.
