Crime Bureau


Please pity child-murderer, "M"
From madness his actions all stem
As played by Pete Lorre
We hear his sad story
While underworld seeks to condemn

M is Fritz Lang's seminal silent crime film.



We started our centennial tribute to Vincent Price on May 17, 2011, here. This monster marathon was our part in the annual Countdown to Halloween. It crawled along until it breathed its last on March 17, 2012.

Small girls should decline gift balloons
From serial child-killing loons
Soon marked with an "M"
The man who slew them
Is tried by a court of mad goons
I dunno about M as Lang's seminal crime film - what about Dr Mabuse?
You'll have to ask Backthrow about that. I like them both, as well as Langs American films.
