The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) - Full Movie

[Zggrt443]

How can you recreate this kind of feel in Adobe without it looking all sepia and cheesy?

[Aspenfash899]

fucking portlandia lols

[jazzyjchan]

Yeah, I don't know about Portlandia, but Queen of the Damned brought me here :D

[ziggycat999]

Was'nt Conrad Veidt (The Somnambulist) the same actor that played Col.Klink on "Hogans Heroes" decades later?

[heimweh07]

@ziggycat999 No. He played Major Strasser in Casablanca.

[Camcrazy530]

Don't watch the whole thing. You'll turn into a mailman.

[MrChillypepper7]

aw, fuck i turned into a mailman =/

[kita2070]

240p, we meet again

[MobRulesNow]

Portlandia! Ha!

[KOOLAIDchampion]

Thumbs up if Portlandia brought you here!

[mshara1]

Once you watch the Cabinet of Dr. Caligari you're cursed until someone else watches the film.

[melizmatea]

Yeah, that's right - I was watching Portlandia too...

[MattiasIAs]

portlandia!

[stupidpoopname]

@MattiasIAs Yes. 

[theSkulla]

that movie is awesome, i love that!

[xxtiaan]

watch out for yr bauhaus t-shirt in this one goth kids!

[NihilSubSole]

Das Kabinett der doktor Caligarisssssssssssssssss.

[MrGUILLERMOPLAZA]

Gracias @LuckyStrike502 por publicar films del cine mudo. Me gustan muchísmo, pues nos dan la oportunidad de conocer como era el cine en la antiguedad. Saludos desde Caracas, Venezuela y Abajo la LEY SOPA....

[sephirot88]

Caligari stole the gloves from Mickey Mouse

[Dulbeks]

il cinema espressionista tedesco... il grande amore della mia vita!

[b4ifly2paradise]

Is it just me or is Lil Dagover SMOKING HOT with all of that white make-up and eye shadow?

[wing0304]

oh but I think the run time of the full version should be 71 mins ?

[GalinaNidiaiz593]

geil find ich toll hihi

[colinmcom14]

Wow, thanks for all these old movies. It's really cool someone would do this.

[thedcmbr]

@curseoftheArkhamdmon Lol you really think Im an emo/scene kid? Honestly there are few groups of people who annoy me more. Calm the fuck down, it was a fucking joke. I'm fully aware of how influential this movie is, I think it's a great film. You're the one who's freaking out of some youtube comment and writing out lengthy insults to a stranger on the internet you know nothing about. I'd say you're the one who needs to grow up.

[HolidayAtHome]

OMG 11:17 the beginning of the Legend of Zelda Theme O__o !!

[MuzikMafi18]

My German teacher showed us this movie today. Its pretty cool...yet for some people kinda confusing. I understand it somewhat. Anyways...thanks for uploading this. Its really neat. :)

[patoezequiel]

gran gran película.



[Piledriver86]

Damn, the look of terror on Cesares second victim looks almost... real

[DeltaKilo3]

Werner Kraus.... we share a last name! If I'm related to that man I'm going to die of awesomeness. To Germany! Or Ancestry.com, that's cheaper!

[awkward91]

The DVD version I watched was twenty minutes longer than this...

[mrspatrickcampbell]

Just think of all the large uncut sizemeat that was in this film - we can almost smell the cheese!

[CoolerKing37]

@mrspatrickcampbell lmao!

[AndreONEz]

Lol, what a crap

[jacklazzell]

looks like they could use a good surveyor up in them parts

[Allzumenschliches44]

One of the very best movies of all time.

[Styxhexenhammer666]

Right up there in the weird awards with Louis Malle's "Black Moon" from the 70s.

[BlackLuckyCat]

anyone know what the German means? (when he runs around chasing the words?)

[IFapToGayPorn]

@BlackLuckyCat "Du mußt Caligari werden!" ("You must become Caligari!")

[CLASSICMONSTERGUY95]

I love the openeing credits to this English version, they look so original and 1930's like (even though the film was made in 1919/1920) Thanks for putting this up!

[irinayugiohfan]

Awesome movie :D

[McFlyLover92]

I LOVE THIS! I'm studying movies, so we see this and other silent movies pretty much everyday!

[DillaZ1337]

@ModifiedEvelyn Zubat in caves as in the pokemon game ....

and yes, they are infinite

[DillaZ1337]

@ModifiedEvelyn No no no! You got it all wrong.. Three things are infinite, the universe, human stupidity AND the amount of zubats in caves

[KeyOfTheTwilight]

That Cesare guy reminds me of Edward Scissorhands! XD Also I love how everthing in the movie looks so distorted, it reminds me of a Tim Burton movie. :D Did he get his ideas from this movie?

[calthegod]

@KeyOfTheTwilight

yeah apparently alot of Burtons style was influenced by this and other German Expressionism

[KeyOfTheTwilight]

@calthegod Oh yeah. That's very interesting! ^_^ So a movie like this is called German Expressionism?

[calthegod]

@KeyOfTheTwilight This is the best one i've seen though, great surrealist feel to it.

[oakforestboys]

Then Caesar does at the end lol

[oakforestboys]

Who else thinks the main character telling the story looks like victor from corpse bride?

[starwarsROXmy]

creepy as fuck

[vulcanica75]

I just re- watched this classic silent with the haunting soundtrack by In the Nursery last saturday @ Portobello film fest. It was awesome! checke their stuff here on youtube.

[44Greenwood44]

When I watch this I'm thinking of Tim Burton as a child sitting on front of these images and been completely amazed

[KamichamaKiku]

We have a movies and meaning class at my school and they showed this movie to us. Very creepy. Especially when you just forget about the movies you've seen today and put yourself in the time when this movie first came out. It's brilliant.

[desmondmyers]

Gibt es ein chance es auf Deutsch zu schauen? Is there any way we can see it in German?

Danke!

[survivor1099]

No. 9 on IMDb's best horror movies.

[xFalsify]

Watched this in my Language of Film class on Wednesday. :) Such a weird film. o_O

[belugavision]

I think about Hitler watching this

[kannibaleaushass]

@belugavision noooo, hitler hates  expressionism :)

[belugavision]

@kannibaleaushass haha true Not a straight line in that movie..I can prove it though! Look at 29.04 and there he is Ready for action SO maybe the artists of this movie actually could predict the future...oooo

[belugavision]

I really like the surreal houses and the shades. It looks really good but you should have a lot of patience to watch this movie

[Qweeftastic]

the version i watched had a lot creepier and more horror like msuci in the background that made it legitimately creepy, why is this version different?

[JaniceGhostHunter13]

@Qweeftastic Well, being a silent movie, you can add just about any type of music you want to it. I saw Nosferatu once with rock music for background music once in the back and again with classical sounding 'creepy' music. I have to admit, the rock sounding one was te best. Just depends who gets it and rereleases it I guess. I'd like to see the one you saw!

[ringbolt9]

very cool post.  love the old silents.........

[CHAOSin8bits]

where can i see the origonal german version with german words?

[FetaCheese222]

@ModifiedEvelyn He was joking. :|

[MrBaebel]

@FetaCheese222 : Me too ;)

[FetaCheese222]

@MrBaebel You too what?

[SpyWhoLovedHimself]

Damn you WMG removing the actor's speech due to copyright!

[thedcmbr]

I'm pretty sure Ceasare is the first emo kid to ever appear on film.

[RogueAdamantiumQueen]

@thedcmbr How dare you compare him to emo kids. No, he was the first goth. 

[thedcmbr]

@RogueAdamantiumQueen Close enough.

[RogueAdamantiumQueen]

@thedcmbr  hardly. >_<

[BirthOfSerpents]

@thedcmbr Goth and Emo are two VERY different things

[thedcmbr]

@BirthOfSerpents Forgive my ignorance. I dont particularly care about the distinction between two high school stereotypes.

[BirthOfSerpents]

@RogueAdamantiumQueen I applaud you madam! Emo's are pathetic and its insulting to compare him to emos. However calling him goth is a compliment

[TorrentUK]

They were still making slient films in 1952? I never realised that.

[ydamoydamo]

@TorrentUK this is from 1920,you moron!

[TorrentUK]

@ydamoydamo Copyright MCMLII - is 1952. Certainly looks like a 1920's film but I wonder why it has a 1952 copyright.

[FetaCheese222]

@TorrentUK It must be a re-release version.

[MrJmfitch]

I love that you put this up. Cheers!

[jamesannucci]

i have always found this score to be so campy and detracting from the emotion of the film. i've heard others which were more fitting, but i made my own accompanying soundtrack/playlist using various trip-hop and instrumental tracks which oddly (and wonderfully) syncs up VERY well with the action. message me if interested in it!

[MackerelCat]

@jamesannucci I am totally interested! I was having the same thought while watching Metropolis.

[jamesannucci]

@MackerelCat here's an article i wrote about it a few years ago. some of the songs are difficult to find, but if you manage to find them all, put them in this order on a playlist with anywhere from a 1-2 second crossfade between. coincidentally, i'm also working on a metropolis playlist!

[jack00008]

@jamesannucci i'm pretty interested, too. the score seems too loud and dramatic for the film itself.

[cha5]

@jack00008 I agree, For me the best score for Caligari is the one you can find on the 2002 Kino Video DVD with a violin score similar to Bernard Herriman's score for Psycho in the shower scene in that it's unnerving and it really ratches up the intensity level far more than this score does.

[verdew8181]

When I was 24 I thought this movie was kind of boring. I saw it much later and it had a much more profound and chilling effect. So I would suggest if you are very young and didn't care for it, wait and see about 20 years so that you have some depth to your life that lets you appreciate this.

[Holowachuk]

great plot...

[wildboy789789]

HAHAHAH we saw this in my video techniques class

[guitargczr699]

@wildboy789789

I'm just curious what video technique you were studying? silent movies? :)

[wildboy789789]

@guitargczr699 german expressionism from the early 1900's... the teacher wanted to show how simple techniques are still used in modern day music videos like "living dead girl" and "the otherside"... im acctually studying video game graphic design, but we needed a film class because in video games you set up the scene, lighting and camera on the computer... i luv my school, ITT tech

[guitargczr699]

@wildboy789789

That's cool. I was just wondering because my cousin goes to SCAD and he's studying animation.

[nannidapisa89]

Il film è un capolavoro come sempre, il soundtrack di questa versione lo stravolge completamente!

[WayToSaveTheWorld]

At 30.09 the Somnambulist really looks like Daniel Radcliffe.

[Kisamesen]

Aos que não gostaram do filme, peço desculpas se não sou gentil, mas como nem tudo está para todos, é preciso conhecimento para assistir tal fime...

[GoldenSilents]

Netflix Instant Stream has a much better print of this full movie.

[TheTobycatcher]

Hey I just saw a "Exclusive War of Horrors short film" and the production design is just like this, it looks cool.

[TheOtranto]

こえーよ　この映画

[Twix236]

genial!!!

[SLACKER614]

Conrad Veight did a early film re homosexuality...he was a pioneer..he had to leave Germany and died playing golf in Hollywood...of a heart attack..american life has its pitfalls too..

[esmifrado]

seriously ppl i know its a "pioneer" u gotta give credits bcuz these were the first steps of cinema...but how can u nowadays seriously enjoy this? i mean its interesting from the "historical" point of view but common it sucks so much lol its not all theyr fault thou, without "sound" dialogues and decent image is hard to be interesting.

[ScarRavenInk]

@esmifrado No comment on the spelling, punctuation and grammar.

It's hard to be interesting when you don't have the patience. If you do however it can be a beautiful, moving piece, provoking much more emotion then films with sound dialogue.

[ImaginaryVoncroy]

@esmifrado How can you NOT like this? It doesn't matter it doesn't have dialogue. The scenerie is fantastic and original, the effects are eerie, the story is good, the actors are very expressive and the plot-twist is a surprised. Not my favourite horror movie from the 20's, but still good up until this day.

[coste087]

YOU'RE THE BEST FOR UPLOADING THIS. sorry, i realize all caps is obnoxious, but there was no other way to accurately express my gratitude.

[merryprankster60]

omg ... wow, this was such a great film ... i remember when I first saw it back in the 70's ... so eerie ...



[Dominik19Z]

I really knew what they would ask themat 13:15 and I knew what he willl answer !

Its always the saim in this classics and its always good ;)

[TheWashingMachine1]

Gabinet Dr Caligari

The Washing Machine soundtrack!

[DrLeonardBonesMcCoy]

I hate it when great movies are remade now with CGI

[SpocksBeard64]

@DrLeonardBonesMcCoy damn straight brother! hahaha, what're the chances.

[TheVerinen2]

WTF what's going on here

[feelingfluffy]

Please explain the plot twist at the end. I don't get it.

[SpocksBeard64]

@feelingfluffy Francis' flashback is actually his fantasy: he, Jane and Cesare are all inmates of the insane asylum, and the man he says is Caligari is his asylum doctor.

[armaghanamy]

This just wan't a movie, it was a summary of my internal brain and it cells! Damn... this movie rocks.. right now, Shutter Island is nothing compare to this amazing, truely dark movie... loved it! Thanks for sharing it!

[LuckyStrike502]

@werewolflover14 If you can't wait 30 seconds, I don't know what to tell you. You must get really upset when you watch TV networks!

[WabiSabiButterfly]

@LuckyStrike502 omg do you remember when macaroni and cheese used to take more than five minutes to make? Actually I remember when it used to take longer than like 10 minutes. man these people would probibly have a mental break down

[comicreaper]

@WabiSabiButterfly do you remember when you had to go to the library to look up information.

[leeccdoo]

They should have never made a remake of this brilliant film....

Such a tragedy, if you ask me.

[Lemontwiggy]

Is this the original music in the English/American version?

before this i had only seen the German verion, and the music is so different - the whole mood of the film is much darker. The music almost drives you crazy.

[Rebldoomer]

we will be seeing this in my theatrical cinema class....

[RoberTastic]

THIS MOVIE RIPPED OFF SHUTTER ISLAND

[jinpayne]

@RoberTastic Lol, you're sarcastic right? I think you are. No one is that stupid to think that

[metallikato]

@RoberTastic So... It jumped in a time machine, skipped to 2010, and ripped off Shutter Island... I hope, for the sake of logic and EVERYTHING, that you're totally kidding.

[Holowachuk]

there is something about the plot i do not understand.

there is this barrel organ at 6:44 and people are paying its player however the monkey isn't dancing AT ALL.

how can that be? i mean the movie doesn't make sence from here an, anymore.

[Mazun]

Shutter Island much?

[creaturewith20eyes]

Man, I love this movie way more than I thought I would have. What a plot twist at the end!

@Sandro1357 Could you give a link to the original music? You make it sound very interesting.

[dexx2323]

I now know where Rob Zombie got his inspiration from for the Living Dead Girl video...

[iiAFX]

James Rolfe sent me here

[Sandro1357]

This is not the original music, and I am sad to say that the original music provides a lot more contextual depth for the storyline of the movie.

This cheesy, 'drama' music takes away from the reality of the film.

[crazitaco]

@Sandro1357 do you know where I can find the original music, or is it too hard to find? cause i would love to hear the original score.

[cecilines]

BRUTAL!

[89Pleasek]

is this HD?

[Agunniiiaa]

ale stare ;OO

[Dsintars]

The last saturday I watched this in the Tromsö International Film Festival in Norway. The music was pretty different, though, A lot more 'horror-like'. I have to say I liked that one better even though it was too much like just plain noise at some times. :'D

[ez45]

It's not the full movie. It's the short version. Search for the 72min version.

[Volkodlakmovie]

If you like old silent horror movies you might want to check out Volkodlak on my channel.

[simonsteneram]

[rockcwene]

Many thanks for making available so many masterpieces!!! you're great!

[EmperorChupacabra]

Say, do they also have Metropolis?

[Vodkanasty]

Please, can you re-upload the film?

Thank you

[LuckyStrike502]

@Vodkanasty Why do you want me to re-upload it?

[CrimsonRGU]

@LuckyStrike502 i have a request if its not much of a bother. im 17 and yeah i know its weird that i like some silent films but i honestly think they have a better story than modern day films. i guess its because im studying film.

its the general by buster keagan, with the orchestral score by carl davis, thats the only way i think the film is better.

its cool if not

[FetaCheese222]

@LuckyStrike502 Wasn' the movie longer? I though it was over an hour long.

[SonicTheAk]

@corebreach hahahahha i dont know why but i find your comment amusing.So you want to watch non hq films in hq?thats like if you show ballerinas how to play soccer

[aj7419]

@LuckyStrike502 I bet he wanted it in higher res, but I'm guessing it doesn't get any higher.

[Vodkanasty]

Please, can you re-upluoad the film?

Thank you

[truescream93]

Just got 101 horror movies you must see before you die, and this one first on my list hope its good

[immsomeone1]

[aardfay]

[MariktheChao]
