I unwittingly gave it away! Thanks for the list, Volker. DAS TODESRACHER ... is based on Bryan Edgar Wallace but it's close enough. Franco also made several EW inspired films in the 1980s: SANGRE EN MIS ZAPATOS (1983) based on EW's SANDERS OF THE RIVER and VIAJE A BANGKOK ATAUD INCLUIDO (1985) supposedly inspired by EW characters. I have yet to see both.
