CALIGARI: In this silent, classic example of early German expressionism--a cinematic landmark--the stylized tale is told of Dr. Caligari, a fairground showman who hypnotizes an innocent villager--turning him into a sleepwalking "zombie"--and compelling him to carry out fiendish murders.

The pioneering works of early silent cinema contained in this collection are among the most respected and influential films ever created. The expressionistic style found in Germany's The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Nosferatu, The Golem and Lon Chaney's magnificent performances in The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Phantom Of The Opera are considered landmarks in the history of motion pictures.
