The Cat And The Canary

Paul Leni directs one of the most influential films in the early history of genre cinema, which set the stage for the 1930s Universal horror cycle

Based upon the 1922 stage production by John Willard, The Cat and the Canary is a perfect blend of horror and black comedy and stands at the apex of a cycle of films adapted from mystery plays throughout the 1920s. It later inspired James Whale's The Old Dark House and has been remade several times - but never bettered.
