“The first true horror film.” – Roger Ebert
- Called “The first true horror film.” by critic Roger Ebert, and hailed as one of the greatest films—silent or otherwise—of all time, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is an absolute must-see for horror fans. With dark, nightmarish imagery that’s as unsettling today as when it first came out in 1920, the film follows an insane hypnotist on his macabre journey of murder and mayhem, and has a plot twist you won’t see coming.
“It creates beneath the opera one of the most grotesque places in the cinema.” – Roger Ebert
- Starring legendary “Man of a Thousand Faces” Lon Chaney,The Phantom of the Opera
saturates the screen with moody, Gothic imagery as it tells a spine-tingling and suspenseful tale of love, art, and obsession—a story later transformed into the most popular Broadway musical in history.
