Criminal mastermind Dr. Mabuse was brought to the screen for the first time as Dr. Mabuse, The Gambler in 1922 by master German director Fritz Lang. In the early 1960s, German producer Arthur Brauner, a lifelong fan of Lang's, revisited the mythos of Mabuse with a series of new entries. In all these films - which were later cheaply dubbed for the American market - Mabuse was played by character actor Wolfgang Preiss. By the last entry, The Death Ray of Dr. Mabuse (1964), the Mabuse series had more in common with James Bond than German Expressionism, centering on spies and bikini-clad bombshells. In the 21rst Century, director Ansel Faraj revived the character with his film Doctor Mabuse (2013) starring Jerry Lacy.

With the secret formula now in his grasp, Mabuse unleashes an army of invisible soldiers, their goal nothing less than world conquest...
