12) 10 Rillington Place (1971)
Trending
This British classic narrates the horrific murders of John Christie, an infamous serial killer of the 1940s and 1950s. He lured victims into his London home at 10 Rillington Place, where he performed fictional medical procedures. Richard Attenborough's portrayal of Christie is chillingly restrained; the tension of the film hinges on this restraint. Directed by Richard Fleischer, the film also portrays another miscarriage of justice: that of the wrongly accused and executed Timothy Evans. It stands out in true-crime cinema for haunting realism.
