10 Rillington Place

The 1971 British crime drama horror film "10 Rillington Place" dramatizes the true story of John Christie, a serial killer who committed many of his crimes in a London terraced house of the same name, and the miscarriage of justice involving his neighbour Timothy Evans. Based on the 1961 nonfiction book by Ludovic Kennedy, the film tells the story of how Tim's pregnant wife Beryl was brutally murdered with her unborn child, while he was wrongly accused and hanged for the crime. The film's dark and haunting portrayal of Christie's dual life and the devastating consequences of his crimes have led to a critical reappraisal of the 1971 release.
