The 1,000 Eyes of Dr. Mabuse
A reporter is killed in his car on his way to work. Inspector Kras gets a call from his informant Peter Cornelius, a blind fortuneteller, who had a vision of the crime but not the perpetrator. Meanwhile, Henry Travers, a rich American industrialist, checks into the Luxor Hotel, which has been outfitted by the Nazis during World War II to spy on people in every room.

These disparate characters eventually get together to solve what appears to be the re-emergence of the long-dead Dr. Mabuse.
