Killers Among Us

Killers Among Us (German: Mörder unter uns) is a 1930 German thriller film directed by Carlton Andersen starring Conrad Veidt as a politician who at night is a serial killer who murders his political opponents in order to silence opposition to his group, the Workers' Party all while the local police tries to hunt him down.

Written by Andersen alongside his then girlfriend Martina Emma and the director's first sound film (the only one produced in his native Germany), the film's villain was a metaphor for the then rising Nazi Party (it's full name was the National Socialist German Worker's Party), whom Andersen opposed, Nazi Party members frequently picketed and even attacked screenings of the film, this among other factors played a part in Andersen and Emma moving to America, where'd they spend the rest of their lives, Now considered a timeless classic, the film was deemed by many as one of the early example of the Political thriller.

The film was shot simultaneously in German and English-language versions, although the latter version was thought lost for many years until it was released alongside the German version on Blu-ray in 2018.

The third and final film in a thematic trilogy of films directed by Andersen following The Hands of the Ripper (1923) and Pinocchio's Death (1926)
