Too expressionistic for my taste but for once the plot made me pleasantly confused. And it was overall pretty ahead of its time so kudos for that.

One of the first horror films to be made is still one of the best. Is Cesare a possessed doll? A creepy demon that Caligari owns and has do his bidding? A sleepwalker he has under his control? It's never made entirely clear, but either way, it works. The shock ending is satisfying beyond all belief, and also explains why Cesare is so mysterious. This film introduced the world to German Expressionists, and its influence continues to be felt. The visuals rival, and often beat, whatever a modern filmmaker could conjure up from the dark abyss of their imagination. Proof that real sets, props, and special effects are better than the artificial? You bet, and so much more.

Landmark German Expressionist film. The distorted set design and extreme angles contribute to the unsettling mood. The Kino DVD has a great short film as part if its special features.
