The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari 1920 2008 Horror Movie Review

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (Enhanced) 1920 

  This film has been enhanced using a Video Enhancement Program that reduces noise and enhances video quality. 

  Released in 1920, The Cabinet of Doctor Caligari (Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari) was literally years ahead of its time and remains a triumphant accomplishment in the genre of German Expressionism. Remembered mainly for its stunning sets, which featured crooked buildings and twisted landscapes, “Caligari” also boasts one of the first attempts at a twist ending, something quite new and shocking for its time. 

  Told mainly from the point of view of Francis, a young man who lives in the small village of Holstenwall, Germany, “Caligari” tells the tale of murder and madness which seems to accompany the arrival of a carnival. Francis and his best friend Alan go to the carnival and are presented with the sideshow attraction Cesare the Somnambulist, a gaunt and hideous young man who spends his life sleeping in a coffin-like cabinet and seems able to predict the future when awake.
