In this classic German thriller, Hans Beckert, a serial killer who preys on children, becomes the focus of a massive Berlin police manhunt. Beckert's heinous crimes are so repellant and disruptive to city life that he is even targeted by others in the seedy underworld network. With both cops and criminals in pursuit, the murderer soon realizes that people are on his trail, sending him into a tense, panicked attempt to escape justice.

M trailer

M (1931), directed by Fritz Lang, is a drama film and is available to stream on 14 services in the US. It doesn't yet have widely-aggregated ratings. Released in 1931, the film is a recognisable touchstone of 1930s drama, and remains widely watched decades later.

The film stars Peter Lorre, Ellen Widmann, and Inge Landgut. At 110 minutes, it's a typical feature-length viewing. It fits comfortably into a single sitting without feeling rushed.
