Looking back on 2025, The Cathedral of New Emotions was our first release of the year. We have been delighted to see so many people discovering this surreal, psychedelic delight of animation from Helmut Herbst!
This last year, @spectaclenyc.bsky.social screened the film and their viewers loved it

Two fantastic German silents in one set by @deafcrocodile.bsky.social
Alraune features Paul Wegener of Golem fame and Brigitte Helm as a mandrake woman; basically reprising her role as Evil Maria from Metropolis. Student of Prague is a Faustian tale starring Conrad Veidt.

A ★★★½ review of 2551.01 - The Kid (2021)
Charlie Chaplin's The Kid but as nightmarish as Haxan or Vampyr. A world stripped of any beauty and hope. This is the best way to describe this experimental silent film. Two parts to go...
