German Expressionism

We start with Nosferatu, the real deal creepy vampire movie, there's some weird stuff going on in there.

Then you've got Metropolis, an early Sci-fi masterpiece filled with so much important stuff like the revolutionary special effects and the introduction of sci-fi elements we all know and love today.

Every director and their mother was inspired by German expressionism from Alfred Hitchcock to Tim Burton and even Tim Burton's mother.

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, this is another one of those black and white German expressionism movies, except its not actually black and white because they tinted the film, good stuff. There's some wild jazz music in the soundtrack though.

  1. Excellent blog! You've got all the stuff here- film reviews, what you thought about what we're watching in class and what you're watching outside of class, the Must Watch List from the Drunken Father of a Friend. Just add some more pictures of what you like and speculate about what you'd like to make yourself. Keep it up!
