Summary
[edit]DescriptionLe Manoir du Diable (1896) by Georges Méliès.webm |
English: Georges Méliès' 1896 silent film "The House of the Devil" is the first horror film in existence.
Like most of his work during this period, Méliès milked the horror premise for comedy and spectacle, experimenting with trick photography and visual illusions. Even back then, "The House of the Devil" had all the horror movie clichés before they were clichés: demons, skeletons, ghosts, witchcraft, sorcery, and a spooky gothic castle. All in just 3 minutes! The film's original French title is "Le Manoir du diable." The film is sometimes confused with its remake "The Haunted Castle" (1897) (French: "Le Château hanté"). |
