The Ringer (Der Hexer ("The Warlock")) is a 1964 German detective movie directed by Alfred Vohrer and adapted from the 1925 novel "The Ringer" (originally released as "The Gaunt Stranger") by Edgar Wallace. A notorious criminal Arthur Milton known as "The Warlock" ("The Ringer" in the original novel) who had escaped from Britain to Australia returns in London after his sister is murdered. Inspector Higgins (Joachim Fuchsberger) investigates the case, teaming with the retired detective Warren (Siegfried Lowitz). Warren is the only man who knows the real face of "The Warlock", a master of disguise.
The film is the seventeenth installment in the Rialto Film studio film series (1959-1972) adapted from the novels of Edgar Wallace, and the sixth screen adaptation of the original work, following 1928, 1931, 1938 and 1952 British films and 1932 German film. In 1965 the film was followed by a direct sequel Again the Ringer.
