Peeping Tom (1960), the serial killer/voyeurism movie that wrecked director Michael Powell's career. A superb movie that remains disturbing.

La historia de un amor en plena guerra no es nada nuevo, pero y decidieron elevarlo a los altares, literalmente, con un derroche de imaginación e innovación que marcarían como una de las mejores películas de la historia y punto de referencia para muchos cineastas posteriores (sobre todo, del género fantástico).
El plano de esa maravillosa escalera () es magnífico.
