The German Krimi film vogue of the early 60s is sometimes considered the forerunner to Italy’s Giallo craze which came immediately after. The Carpet of Horror adapts another Edgar Wallace story, this one about a secret organization whose leader uses poison gas to kill off their various enemies. A secret service agent is on their trail. The story is convoluted and needlessly confusing, but the action never lags, moving everything along at a quick pace. Fans of any of the Mabuse films will find similar enjoyment with this pulpy thriller. br br Cast: br Joachim Fuchsberger - Harry Raffold br Karin Dor - Ann Learner br Eleonora Rossi Drago - Mabel Hughes br Antonio Casas - Doctor Shipley br Fernando Sancho - Hefty Henchman br Roberto Rey - John MillnerAnn's Uncle br Julio Infiesta - Inspector Burns br Carl Lange - Colonel Gregory (as Karl Lange) br José María Caffarel - Mr. Vane the Banker br Gabriel Llopart - Flesh the Associate of Clayton br Werner Peters - Clayton the Blackmailer br Marco Guglielmi - Deputy Inspector Webster br Paola Pitagora - JaneMabel's Maid br Pierre Besari - BobHarry's Butler (as Pedro Besari) br Lorenzo Robledo - Henchman Sam br Rafael Vaquero - Tonio Perelli of Auro Repair Shop br Jacinto San Emeterio - Robert of the Secret Service br Ana María Custodio - Lady Raffold br Mario Morales - Henchman br Antonio Queipo - Chief Inspector br Luana Alcañiz - Mrs.
