Silent Film Marathon: Film 6

Haxan: Witchcraft Through The Ages is a film I had only vaguely heard of before thinking of this marathon, it was the only one of these Silent films that I didn't own already, but as it was very highly recommended to me I decided to add it to my collection and subsequently review it as part of this marathon. And as it is part of the inestimable Criterion Collection it was easy to obtain and then watch.

After having watched it I must first thank all those who recommended it for it is a truly amazing film. I was fascinated all the way through and the film's subject was one of such originality and was presented in such an honest and appealing way that I could not help but feel that I was watching one of the wonders of the Silent Era.
