Next May, filmmaker Ansel Faraj releases his latest work, DOCTOR MABUSE, which might just remind viewers of Fritz Lang's 1932 thriller THE TESTAMENT OF DR. MABUSE.

Lang is one of Faraj's major influences, as is the legendary gothic soap opera DARK SHADOWS. Tipping his hat to the latter, Jerry Lacy (beloved by DARK SHADOWS fans as the villainous Reverend Trask) plays Mabuse. Kathryn Leigh Scott and Lara Parker, two of SHADOWS' most iconic leading ladies,co-star, with Scott playing Madame Von Harbou (named after Fritz Lang's wife).

"Inspired by the character created by Norbert Jaques, the notorious supervillain returns to the screen in this new original tale about the mysterious 'man behind the curtain.' Don't let him into your mind," says Faraj.
