FAUST (1926)

Utilising the full resources of the UFA Studios, including elaborate miniature models
and experimental special effects, "Faust" captures the intensity of a medieval
universe steeped in religious fanaticism and pagan alchemy. Black-hooded
pallbearers lead a torch-lit procession through a plague-stricken village
literally cloaked by the wings of Satan. Crowded landscapes materialise
and vanish in wisps of smoke, demonic creatures soar through the
heavens, and spirits permeate the dungeon - like homes and
"Caligari"-esque rooftops, tormenting the earthly beings.
