'''''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.
