How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A pulpy spy-thriller where a detective hunts a supposedly-dead arch-villain through foggy London, chasing sinister clues and increasingly improbable murder weapons. It moves between earnest mystery and campy villainy with the ease of classic serialized adventure.
