If you loved Dr. Caligari, try Vampire's Kiss
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Theyboth carry the pitch black, surreal, unhinged mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Fantasy / Horror territory. If that's the register that drew you to Dr. Caligari, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Vampire's Kiss is
Red light district at midnight. A silk scarf suddenly tightens around a man’s neck. His secretary’s coffee cup rattles on a desk. The deluxe office begins to smell faintly of iron and night-blooming jasmine. A distressed voice crackles over the intercom. Apologies turn to threats. A gold Cross watch chain snaps between clenched teeth. Nicolas Roeg’s lush, paranoid fever dream from the late 80s.
