The picture sets itself the task of raising your hair from your head, and it succeeds from the moment the actors appear in the prologue. Full Review

Rating: 4/4 -- The vertiginous sets synthesize with the film's more rudimentary narrative of doubling to achieve radically luminous social ends. Full Review

Caligari, the most complete essay in the décor of delirium, is one of the most famous films of all time, and it was considered a radical advance in film technique, yet it is rarely imitated -- and you'll know why. Full Review

...One of the first -- and still one of the greatest -- psychological horror movies...

Rating: 5/5 -- Just as dreams take complex personalities and boil them down to friend or foe, so too The Cabinet of Dr Caligari brims with archetypes: the demented doctor, the handsome hero, the innocent ingénue.

Rating: 5/5 -- The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is one of cinema's most enduring masterpieces.

Rating: 4.5/5 -- The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari illustrates something more eternal: about great manipulators, and the underlying anxiety that either society has gone mad, or we have. Full Review

Product Description:

In this silent, classic example of early German expressionism, this cinematic landmark relates the stylized tale of a Dr. Caligari, a fairground showman who hypnotizes an innocent villager--turning him into a sleepwalking "zombie"--and compels him to carry out fiendish murders. Inarguably a landmark in world cinema, Robert Weine's one-of-a-kind thriller features fantastical, heavily stylized sets, antirealist acting, and evocative subjective camerawork.
