Classical feature film - A landmark of cinematic artistry, the classic silent horror film THE Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920, 67 min) has vivid expressionistic imagery which brilliantly reflects the nightmarish emotional states of the characters. Francis' investigation of his friend's murder leads him to suspect that the killer was a zombie-like sleepwalker under the hypnotic control of the diabolical Dr. Caligari. The mother lode of the horror genre, this German Expressionist movie is directed by Robert Wiene and presents a full smorgasbord of pop-eyed terror, lunatics, murderers and possessed somnambulists in its eerie shadows.
