Anna (Angharad Rees) is unknowingly the daughter of Jack the Ripper, and as a child witnessed the death of her mother at her evil father's hands. Some fifteen years later the young woman has become terribly troubled by something and enters strange violent trances. Her case is assigned to psychiatrist Dr Pritchard (Eric Porter) who believes he can cure Anna, but as he uncovers her violent memories and her murderous behaviour is unleashed he starts to fear that the case is spiralling out of control.

The Hammer film "Hands of the Ripper" is mainly intended for lovers of classic British historical horror, as it can delight such fans. Otherwise, the film does not bring such a good story that could captivate overall. It is a slight above average, but from my point of view, above average only very slightly. Horror from Hammer usually pleases more than most current horrors.
