Okay...
Is the entire film gonna be like this?
This is weird even by my standards. Man, this is weird even by David Lynch's standards...
But the colours and 80'sness do make it kinda fun. :thumbup:

Really looooooooooong boobs.
Or did I just imagine that. :question:
I think I reached a point where my mind was starting to break.
Ah, Dr. Caligari. A perfect example of the German Expressionist movement. Imagine if you would, a genre where every movie is like a Tim Burton film. I'm pretty sure movies like Caligari were inspiration for him. Personally I love dark expressionistic films like Caligari.

You chose the right word,my freind.

Didnt work.

I'm going to have to hunt down and kill whoever made this tripe. Did the person who made this crap think they were paying homage to the original film by ripping-off the Caligari name? Well it sure has hell didn't work. To compare what I saw in that video to the German expressionist art I saw in
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is like comparing a pile of rotten s**t with the world's most expensive diamond. Quite frankly, I find this display offensive.
AJ,my freind,I will be in that posse.
String em up!

I wrote a fairly substantial article on this film: http://366weirdmovies.com/borderline-weird-dr-caligari-1989. I actually kind of like it; I gave it 3/5 stars. And I'm
definitely a fan of the original.
