Gorilla Gang (Der Gorilla von Soho ("The Gorilla of Soho") is a 1968 German detective movie directed by Alfred Vohrer. The plot is remade from an earlier film of Rialto-Edgar Wallace series - The Dead Eyes of London (1961). In London several wealthy men are found drowned, and dolls with mysterious inscriptions are on their bodies. Inspector Perkins (Horst Tappert) of Scotland Yard suspects that the once feared "Gorilla gang" is behind the murders. He teams with Susan McPherson (Uschi Glas), an expert in African languages, for the investigation.
The film is the 27th installment in the Rialto Film studio film series (1959-1972) adapted from the novels of Edgar Wallace.
