Schulhoff directed several short films before his feature film debut with the detective film
Strach (1963). Afterwards, he made
The Murderer Hides His Face (Vrah skryvá tvár, 1966) and
Po stopách krve (1969), which together with the two previous films makes sort of a trilogy of criminal films with Rudolf Hrusínský as detective Kalas. He directed many TV films and afterwards two more criminal films
Vim, ze jsi vrah (1971) and
Osud jménem Kamila (1974). He also tried out himself in the genre of comedy with
Hodíme se k sobe, milácku..? (1974),
Zítra roztocíme, drahousku... (1976),
'Já to tedy beru, séfe..!' (1977),
Já uz budu hodný, dedecku! (1979),
Co je doma, to se pocítá, pánové... (1980) and
Príste budeme chytrejsí, starousku! (1982). He returned to his character of inspector Kalas in the film
Diagnóza smrti (1979).
