Grijpstra & De Gier is a 1979 Dutch crime film directed by Wim Verstappen. It is based on the eponymous novel series by Jan Willem van de Wetering (although his name is usually styled Janwillem van de Wetering), specifically Het lijk in de Haarlemmer Houttuinen (translation: The Body in the Haarlemmer Houttuinen, a former neighbourhood in Amsterdam).

The film has also been released as Fatal Error and Outsider in Amsterdam.^[1] Although the film was not received to critical acclaim, it managed reasonable box-office success.

Grijpstra is a man who easily gets frustrated and acts out his anger by hitting people. De Gier is a womanizer. Chief suspect in this case is a former police officer. The case is originally about a man who seems to have hanged himself but which turns out to be a murder involving the drug trade.

A sequel was made: De Ratelrat, in which Rutger Hauer was replaced by Peter Faber.

The novels were also made into a spin-off television series which ran from 2004 to 2007, with Jack Wouterse as Grijpstra and Roef Ragas as de Gier.
