Just watched this movie in my German Cinema class. Pretty good. :) Love the idea of the sorcerer taking his reflection. Old German movies are awesome!
@MaggieLovesJimmy The Cabinet of Dr, Caligari, Nosferatu, Faust, and Metropolis are some other great films that have been influenced by this, check them out.
I have this movie on dvd, but I can't remember if it's from Alpha. Personally, I would do a search to see if anybody else has put out the 1913 version, because the print I have is pretty lousy. It's pretty obvious that it was taken from an old vhs tape.
@017nosferatu Not the first (though this might be the first feature lenght horror movie) but a lot of people still don't know of it, even though it influenced The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, and the more famous early silents. Nice screenname by the way.
@DutchWestIndianCo Love the soundtrack. Silent horror needs chilling music like this. I am watching this at close to midnight and I am a little creeped out.
