THE BLACK PANTHER (1977)

Ian Merrick, UK, 1977, Multicom, Cult

“This feels like a British TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN, told from the killer's POV.”
— street, LETTERBOXD

This riveting “true crime” exposé charts the killing spree that Donald Neilson perpetrated across England throughout the 1970s, culminating in the kidnapping and killing of a teenage heiress. Told with meticulous adherence to fact and avoiding exploitive excess, THE BLACK PANTHER is an unsettling portrait of a deranged murderer that shares the same headspace as TAXI DRIVER and HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER.
