As Jack the Ripper terrorised London's East End in the 1880s, clueless police needed a scapegoat. The natural answer was the area's Polish and Russian Jewish immigrants. This film plays into that prejudice. The graffito at the end gave it its title, because this was found by chance while shooting, and uses the same spelling as a graffito from the Ripper era.
