Dallmann</font> <font size=3 face="Book Antiqua,Century Schoolbook,Times New Roman"> <p>Between the first two entries in what became known as Jesus Franco's "Orloff" series, the writer/director (here, once again, working as "Jess Frank" and basing his script on a novel he probably never actually wrote under the name "David Khune") concocted this surprisingly potent "missing link." While not an Orloff film, <i>Murder By Numbers</i> (now available on DVD from Image Entertainment) provides central roles for two important players in that series. Howard Vernon and Hugo Blanco played the title characters in <I>The Awful Dr. Orloff</I> and <i>Dr. Orloff's Monster</i>, respectively; here, they're cast as descendants of the film's namesake. <p><a href="default-nf.htm">Go to the review</a></font> </body>
