Do you know what the most frightening thing in the world is? It's fear.
~ Mark's infamous quote.

Mark Lewis is a serial killer and the protagonist of the 1960 British horror film Peeping Tom.

He was portrayed by the late Karlheinz Böhm.

Biography[]

When Lewis was a child, his father, a psychologist, used him as a guinea pig for his experiments on fear and phobias. He would expose the boy to frightening stimuli, such as dropping lizards and spiders on him, and film his terrified reactions.

As an adult Lewis becomes a serial killer who murders women and records their agonizing final moments with a portable movie camera in order to preserve their terrified expressions. He places a mirror above his camera and forces his victims to watch their own deaths. His camera has a sharp blade on the end of one of the legs, which he uses to stab his victims to death.

It appears as if Mark suffers from some sort of mental illness. He often tells those he cares about not to become afraid around him, indicating that if he sees fear in the eyes of people, he becomes compelled to film and murder them. At the end of the film, Mark's love interest, a woman named Helen, discovers the film and is horrified. Mark explains everything to her, and before the police arrive, Mark films himself committing suicide with his camera.
