Dr. Caligari's somnambulist, Cesare, and his deadly predictions.
Robert Wiene’s 1920 expressionist masterpiece.
This freshly 4K-ed masterpiece of German Expressionism deserves to be seen on the big screen. Track it down and be rewarded with possibly cinema's first ever twist ending.
Warped in all senses, fascinating and bizarre: this is the 1920 silent movie by Robert Wiene – now re-released in cinemas – that lay down a template for today's scary movies, noirs and psychological thrillers.
Welcome to German expressionist style madness.
Every frame of Robert Wiene's 1920 German silent film has an influence far beyond the horror genre.
