The list author says:
	"F.W. Murnau's thinly veiled adaptation of "Dracula" is a masterpiece of both expressionism and realism shot on location in south Germany and the Baltic. Max Shreck in the lead role is unforgettable."

4. Metropolis - Masters of Cinema series [DVD] [1927] DVD ~ Metropolis

The list author says:
	"It's not the (much adapted) plot of a future dystopia, nor the acting. It's the brilliant imagery that influenced almost every sci-fi film down to our days. And the original score is a nice touch too."

5. Cabinet of Dr Caligari [DVD] [1919] [US Import] [2019] DVD ~ Werner Krauss

The list author says:
	"Expressionism reaches its heights in what is one of its first features. Alienation, murder and madness. The ending had to be re-written, ironically it only gave critics a higher regard for the film."

10. The Flesh and the Devil [DVD]

The list author says:
	"At long last on Region 2 DVD. It's Garbo's only performance as a 'vamp' that carries conviction by bringing something very original to the screen. She was 20 when the film was completed."
