Great movie and I was impressed by it especially since its from 1930. The only complaints I have is that there wasnt enough talking and I had trouble hearing certain things, like when the character would say did someone scream, I would hear no scream. But a great movie and a great classic vampire film
Just watched this movie and wasn't dissappointed. the film plays more like a silnet one but I don't think that was because of Dreyers first attempt at a talkie movie. the title cards help keep the atmosphere of the movie. it is hard to say what is going on at times but that is part of the mystery of the film. enjoi!
First and foremost: Do not attempt to watch this movie if you're like me and have the attention span of a rodent. You won't be able to sit through it. I hardly was. The poster art is insanely more interesting than the film itself.
Secondly: If you like Gothic horror, this is your dream. It's not really true hardcore Gothic, but the image style is similar.
As for the film itself, it's more or less nothing more than a weird look at paintings in a horror museum. The plot is paper-thin, next to no talking, and next to nothing really happening beside the weird horror images.
I highly suggest you watch this on YouTube. Just know if you can't sit through the first ten minutes, it doesn't get any better by the end.
