The Trixxer is a 2004 comedy movie directed by Tobi Baumann that parodies various Edgar Wallace films of the 1950s and 1960s, especially the 1964 movie Der Hexer. Mysterious murders around the tradition-conscious Blackwhite Castle shake London's underworld. A rogue killer is on the loose, called the Wixxer. Scotland Yard puts its best men on the case: Inspector Very Long and Chief Inspector Even Longer, who already have a first suspicion and come to Blackwhite Castle.
After Der Hexer, there was the follow-up film Neues vom Hexer. Accordingly, the title of the second part of Der Wixxer was called Neues vom Wixxer which was released in 2007.
