What it’s about. Remake eines Stummfilms von Alfred Hitchcock aus dem Jahr 1927, der in Deutschland unter dem Titel “Der Mieter” veröffentlicht wurde. “The Lodger” erzählt die Geschichte eines in die Jahre gekommenen Detectives auf der Spur eines eiskalten Killers, der entlang des Sunset Strip in West Hollywood Prostituierte ermordet. Offenbar sind die grausamen Methoden des Mörders identisch mit denen des berüchtigten Psychopathen Jack The Ripper im London des 19. Jahrhunderts – des unerbittlichen Serienkillers, der nie von der Polizei gefasst wurde. Zu allem Übel fallen dem Detective Parallelen zwischen den in West Hollywood begangenen Verbrechen und denen eines vor Jahren verurteilten Serienmörders auf. Ist es möglich, dass damals der falsche Mann hinter Gitter gebracht wurde?
