Unfortunately, Roy is unaware his son is diabetic and that without insulin his life is in danger. And so begins a race against time to catch the missing pair... In 'The Pursuers' (1961), ex-Nazi war criminal Karl Luther (Cyril Shaps) has been in hiding for over a decade since the end of World War Two, but is finally run to ground by a dedicated group of Nazi hunters led by private eye Karl Luther (Francis Matthews). John Ireland and Cecil Beaton star in 'Return of the Stranger' (1961). The quiet lives of Ray Reed (Ireland) and his wife Pam (Susan Stephen) are shattered when a mysterious stalker starts bombarding them with late night phone calls, sudden appearances and sinister behaviour. It turns out that the man, Homer Trent (Beaton), is a mental patient recently released from hospital. Having been incarcerated after brutally attacking Pam while she was still a schoolgirl, the psychopathic Homer is now looking to settle the score. 'Strip Tease Murders' is produced by the Danzinger Brothers. When a stripper collapses and dies on stage at the Flamingo nightclub, her death is attributed to natural causes - but her boyfriend and fellow club employee Bert Black (John Hewer) suspects that some very unnatural forces are at work.
