Blu-ray Review: Fritz Lang’s ‘Ministry of Fear’ Enters Criterion Collection
Submitted by BrianTT on March 25, 2013 - 10:24amCHICAGO – Slight on special features and not as instantly recognizable as some recent inductions into the Criterion Collection like “On the Waterfront” or “Badlands,” Fritz Lang’s “Ministry of Fear” could easily slip under the radar even for people who know and love the thriller.

Working in Hollywood during World War II, Lang made thrillers that were more than just thrillers. “Ministry of Fear” is one of his best.
