Released at the height of German expressionist cinema, Nosferatu was an unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, and was almost lost forever after Stoker's heirs sued over the adaptation and a court ruling ordered that all copies of the film be destroyed.
Widely considered the earliest example of horror cinema and the quintessential piece of German expressionism, Robert Wiene's The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is a stylized nightmare of sharp angles, abstract locations, diagonal staircases, and violent landscapes.
