Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/4 --
The vertiginous sets synthesize with the film's more rudimentary narrative of doubling to achieve radically luminous social ends.

Slant Magazine
Rating: 5/5 --
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.

A twisted tale of murder, kidnap, madness and an ancient book, all told in flashback by a young man from a park bench.

Observer (UK)
Rating: 4.5/5 --
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari illustrates something more eternal: about great manipulators, and the underlying anxiety that either society has gone mad, or we have.

The Dissolve
Caligari, the most complete essay in the décor of delirium, is one of the most famous films of all time, and it was considered a radical advance in film technique, yet it is rarely imitated -- and you'll know why.

...This is an impressive color-tinted rendering of the German silent classic...

Product Description:
In this silent, classic example of early German expressionism, this cinematic landmark relates the stylized tale of a Dr. Caligari, a fairground showman who hypnotizes an innocent villager--turning him into a sleepwalking "zombie"--and compels him to carry out fiendish murders. Inarguably a landmark in world cinema, Robert Weine's one-of-a-kind thriller features fantastical, heavily stylized sets, antirealist acting, and evocative subjective camerawork.
