Lang's unnerving tale of a deranged child-killer (with Lorre in a star-making turn) is a riveting example of Expressionist filmmaking.

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari

Often cited as the first true horror movie and one of the first films to tell its story through the eyes of a delirious madman, the techniques of this film milestone are rarely imitated. Eschewing naturalism, the movie's sets are all painted in hallucinatory black-and-white designs and the acting, as well, follows Expressionistic techniques popular in Germany at the time.

"...the Dobie Theatre have presented two other silent films (Nosferatu and Aleita, Queen of Mars) in this fashion, thus..."

Blood Feast

Shadow of the Vampire isn't just an imaginative riff on the making of F.W. Murnau's Nosferatu. "It is an allegory of an aspect of what cinema is at its heart," says director E. Elias Merhige. "It's this dangerous, mad kind of science."
