Quick Answer

What is Night After Night After Night about?

Night After Night After Night is a 1969 British crime-horror film directed by Lindsay Shonteff about a detective hunting a serial killer targeting women in London, only to uncover the dark secrets of a presiding judge.

Programmer's Pick

A grimy slice of British giallo, Night After Night After Night doesn’t skimp on seedy atmosphere or moral ambiguity. If you like your murder mysteries with a side of S&M chambers and a judiciary that’s as twisted as the criminals, this one’s worth a look.

Overview

London is gripped by fear as four women fall victim to a brutal murderer, prompting Detective Inspector Bill Rowan to launch an intensive investigation. The prime suspect is Peter Laver, a young repeat offender with a grim past, but the case grows complicated when Rowan’s own wife is killed, and the body count continues to rise. As the pressure mounts, Rowan arrests Laver, who is convicted despite a shaky alibi. Meanwhile, the stern Judge Charles Lomax presides over the trial, his personal stability unraveling as the case progresses. This British crime-horror blends procedural grit with a lurid undercurrent, hinting at secret obsessions and moral rot beneath the justice system’s veneer.
