First Horror Movie

Always thought it was Nosferatu. But I read a while ago about something else being the the first horror movie ever made. So, what is it?

possibly The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, though there may have been some before that.

ste .. this would suggest you're right :

In a similarly political statement, Sarah mentions: "The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Hans Janowitz and Carl Mayer's 1919 silent film -- generally considered the first horror movie ever made -- is even scarier when you learn its inspiration lies in murder, Mayer's faked insanity, and the very real horrors of World War I.


my pick - The Golum was made in 1920 (so i was close :)

Hmmm thanks. I'll check them out. I tried really hard to enjoy Nosferatu but I failed.

I imagine itz a total bitch to get a hold on. Impossible, more than likely.

La Manoir du Diable. A 2 minute long vampire film, made in 1896, by Georges Méliès. Yes, Ive been doing my homework.
