  2. Act of Murder (1964), a British Edgar Wallace B-movie, involves a romantic triangle and from the start the plot twists come thick and fast. A psychological thriller with lots of paranoia and a pleasingly hard-edged nasty streak. Great stuff.

  3. We Shall See, a 1964 British Edgar Wallace thriller with some nasty emotional betrayals and twisted relationships. At the centre is a woman who thinks everyone hates her. Turns out to be more interesting and quirky than you expect. Good film.

  4. The other great Carol Reed-Graham Greene collaboration, a year before The Third Man, was The Fallen Idol (1948). A story of growing up, of trust, of lies and of secrets. Lies and secrets can be well-intentioned but have bad results. Great film.

  5. The Spider and the Fly is a 1949 British crime thriller directed by Robert Hamer. Cop Maubert obsessively hunts master criminal Philippe and hopes to use Philippe's mistress to trap him. Quite good but with an out-of-left-field ending.

  6. Terence Fisher's Kill Me Tomorrow (1957), an OK cheap crime B-movie about a hardbitten reporter who's wrecked his career with booze and self-pity. Now he has to convince the cops that he's a murderer. Lois Maxwell plays a feisty girl reporter.

  7. The Verdict (1964) is a British Edgar Wallace B-movie. It concerns a gangster and a dubious visa which is a clue to a murder 20 years earlier. Well-made, well-acted, fast-moving, witty and clever with an intricate plot that works perfectly.
