Additional Information
One of Alfred Hitchcock's moodiest and most brilliant silent films, THE LODGER explores many themes that would reappear obsessively in Hitchcock's later works, including his delight in the ghoulish, the "man-accused-of-a-crime-he-did-not-commit" theme, and his understanding of the general public's thirst for sex and violence. A family suspects their mysterious lodger is a serial killer with a penchant for blonde girls--and that their daughter might be his next victim. Hitchcock once again focused on a modern-day Jack the Ripper in FRENZY (1972).
