Synopsis



Der Golem (1920)/The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1921)/Nosferatu (1922)

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Der Golem (The Golem) and Nosferatu. Elite Entertainment is proud to bring you these three classic silent films, available for the first time in one double disc DVD package. Digitally mastered from the finest film elements available, these German masterpieces are considered by many to be the roots of the modern horror film.

Almost a decade before American audiences were terrified by Bela Lugosi's portrayal of Count Dracula, German moviegoers were horrified by the stark images of the bloodsucker, Nosferatu. And before Boris Karloff donned his platform shoes and false forehead in Frankenstein, many terrorized villagers were running form the "clay man" in Der Golem. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari introduced horror fans to the "mad scientist" and was the first horror film to include the, "shock ending." A technique still utilized in today's modern filmmaking.

These three classic films should be considered "mandatory viewing" for all modern horror film fans. So, turn down the lights, lock the doors, and enjoy The Masterworks of the German Horror Cinema.
