I haven't seen the 1927 or 1932 versions of 'The Lodger' (which reminds me of 'Night Must Fall' w/Robert Montgomery & Rosalind Russel), but I did see the 1944 remake with Laird Creger as Mr. Slade (suspected by his landlady of being Jack the Ripper). Good cast with Merle Oberon playing Kitty Langley, the actress, and current love/hate interest of The Lodger. Sir Cedric Hardwicke & Sara Allgood play Robert & Ellen Bonting, Kitty's uncle and aunt. Good movie.

I did use a couple of silent films in my class. They were Blackmail and The Lodger. You probably know the background of the films even if you've never seen them. The Lodger is based on Jack the Ripper, a killer who only kills blonds Blackmail is about a woman who is raped and kills her attacker, but is blackmailed by another person.
