Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesAll scenes shot in the marketplace/village were shot at Bray Studios on the revamped set that was constructed for "Le cauchemar de Dracula (1958)." Once "Stranglers" was completed in 1959, the set was completely torn down. The sequences where Guy Rolfe's character goes to meet Allan Cuthbertson's character, the capture of two of the Thuggees in the process and the caravan sequences were shot at the sand-and0gravel quarry in Gerrard's Cross, Buckinghamshire. The tiger hunt and the scene where Rolfe's character finds more grave sites was filmed at the Callow Hill Sandpits in Virginia Water, Egham, in Surrey.
- GaffesThe pistol used in several scenes by Captain Lewis and Captain Connaught-Smith was a revolver. The time frame for this film was set in the 1820's. The revolver wouldn't be invented and patented until 1836.

- Autres versionsFor its UK cinema release the film was cut by the BBFC with edits to the kicking of Lewis by thuggees in an alleyway, and the removal of 'reaction' shots of Karim watching men being branded and strangled. The same print was then cut by a further 7 secs for the 1996 video release with additional edits to remove a scene of a mongoose fighting a snake.

Commentaire en vedette
The Stranglers of Bombay was made by Hammer in 1960 and I found this quite good. It is rather violent for its time.
A series of rather gruesome murders in India turn out to be the work of a religious cult, known as the Stranglers. These people kill just for fun and they enjoy it. A British soldier based over there investigates these killings and nearly becomes a victim himself, but a mongoose appears and killing one of these animals is one of the Stranglers' tabu's. The leader of the Stranglers is killed at the end, along with most of the other members.
The cast includes Guy Rolfe (Mr Sardonicus), Jan Holden, Andrew Cruickshank, George Pastell, Allan Cuthbertson and Roger Delgado (First Man Into Space). Good parts from all.
The Stranglers of Bombay is worth checking out, especially if you are a fan of Hammer.
Rating: 3 stars out of 5.
