Golem

Kino's DVD release of Paul Wegener's The Golem stands head-and-shoulders above any rival edition.

Guy Maddin's Dracula: Pages From a Virgin's Diary

As director Guy Maddin himself explains in one of the featurettes on the DVD release of Dracula, Pages From a Virgin's Diary, Bram Stoker's timeless novel of love and the undead has been filmed far too many times to justify yet another tired, formulaic retread without offering anything new. Of course,… more info >>

This second film version of the Victor Hugo novel Notre Dame de Paris (the first was a Theda Bara vehicle, The Dancer of Paris) was a super-duper-spectacular as only Hollywood of the 1920s could make them, but it is never so large that it dwarfs the contribution of its star, Lon Chaney.
