I watched it in Broadband Daqing. The effect was very poor. It was a pirated version. Moreover, the flow rate was very slow. The film lasted 2 hours, but I used it for at least 2 and a half hours. If it wasn't for the plot, it would still be there, I really can't bear it.
In London in 1888, several prostitutes were suddenly murdered. The murderer's method of committing the crime was extremely cruel-cutting his throat and hollowing out his abdomen. Detective "Johnny", ever since he lost his wife, has relied on opium to numb his nerves all day long. In his illusion, sometimes the face of a dead woman will appear foreseeably.
During the meticulous investigation of the case, "Johnny" discovered that this was a series of murders involving political factors. It turned out that the prince had secretly married a woman, Anne, and several of the murdered prostitutes had attended the wedding, and the royal family would not allow such news to spread among the people. Therefore, the imperial physician William became a skilled murderer.
At the end, the case is not over, Anne is in the lunatic asylum, her good friend Mary hides in the retreat with Anne's daughter, but "Johnny" Mary has been waiting for is dead.
This story is adapted from a real character in history-Jack the Ripper. However, the original case is still pending, and the film uses only one of the rumors.
The feeling of the whole movie is not as good as that of "Guillotine Valley", which is very general.
