 Roleplaying in the World of Darkness
In my opinion, the underlying theme of the four World of Darkness games that I am familiar with (I have yet to play Wraith, but I believe it also fits the pattern) is the transcendence of the inherently flawed over their flaws to do whatever they can.

Frenzy was a homecoming of sorts as it was Hitch's first film shot in the UK since he left during the 40's.
Frenzy has more in common with the brutality evident in early Hitchcock classics like Murder than with Rear Window or Shadow of a Doubt (a film that shares a lot of the same themes although Frenzy is a darker, more contemporary take on the same type of story).
Frenzy is a first-rate thriller from the "Master of Suspense" and proves that even in his 70s, Hitchcock still had what it takes to shock audiences everywhere.
