Wegener had already filmed this story twice, and here it was third time lucky: a masterpiece of German expressionism and one of the most memorable and influential silents, with marvellous sets and enjoyably stylised performances. There is also an interesting racial and political subtext: the monster is brought to life by a Jewish Rabbi in order to protect his people from a pogrom. That said, the plot is heavy going; and it contains few terrors for a modern audience.
