  • very unfortunate this film has been discontinued. hopefully there are plans to release a special edition or at least just re-release the damn thing. jan is incredible and should not be swept under a rug by worthless mundane cinematography or hanna montana

  • This is, without a doubt, one of my ALL TIME FAVORITE interpretations captured on film. I am so grateful for this...Thank you Mr. Svankmajer for this exquisite work of art.

  • At times, the English dub matches the mouths so perfectly, it seems that it was filmed in English!

  • In 1967 I saw Eric Porter perform Faust at the RSC, Stratford on Avon. One of the best theatre performances that I have ever seen and until I saw this version in the90s the best version of Faust that I had ever seen. Well worth seeing the entire performance if you can find it. I have the DVD released by Kino about a decade later, fortunately. A shame that it is no longer available new.

  • Olá assisti a este filme em um canal da rede aberta no Brasil, adorei , mas não acho na internet DUBLADO ou LEGENDADO alguém sabe onde eu poso encontrar? E-Mail : ansuonline20@gmail.com

  • This is an interesting video. I want to see MORE! >:)

  • He died, because of cancer, after 10 days.

  • kids wherever the demons says to you dont got out from the circle of proctetion goeth can be dangerous but if you know how control it can a good source for a lot of things....

  • @theaznfishy I was under the impression that it was supposed to be the demon harassing the magician

  • @karler There's very little information about it on the internet. Wikipedia and imdb simply said he died 9/20/94, and I noticed that was ten days after the release of the film.

  • @Fma1416 This is the first time i heard of this. What was the cause of death?

  • @theaznfishy

    It's God trying to stop him from completing the incantation.
