Dread by the Decade: Unheimliche Geschichten

👻 You can support or commission me on Ko-Fi! ❤️

English Title: Eerie Tales Source Material: Remake of Unheimliche Geschichten (1919) Year: 1932 Genre: Horror Comedy, Psychological Horror, Gothic Rating: Passed (Suggested: PG-13) Country of Origin: Germany Language: German Runtime: 1 hour 29 minutes

Director: Richard Oswald Writers: Heinz Goldberg, Eugen Szatmári Cinematographer: Heinrich Gärtner Editors: Max Brenner, Friedel Buckow Composers: Bert Reisfeld, Rolf Marbot Cast: Paul Wegener, Maria Koppenhöfer, Blandine Ebinger, Eugen Klöpfer, Harald Paulsen

Plot: After murdering his wife, an inventor tries to hide in a mental health facility that has been taken over by its patients.

Review: All it shares with its source, Unheimliche Geschichten (1919), is the fact it's an underwhelming disservice to the gothic tales it claims to adapt.

Overall Rating: 1.5/5

Story: 1/5 - Truly a mess. It feels less like a naturally progressing story and more like the filmmakers were desperately trying to force their favorite gothic tales to fit together, logic be damned.

Performances: 3/5 - The actors do decent jobs, but their performances, like everything else, feel derivative.

Cinematography: 3/5 - Some interesting use of shadow and space, especially during the wax museum sequence.

Editing: 2/5

Sets: 3.5/5 - Fairly realistic looking, if sometimes under-furnished.

Costumes, Hair, & Make-Up: 3/5

Trigger Warnings:

Mild violence

Domestic abuse and spousal murder

Animal abuse

Ableist portrayal of mentally ill people

Suicide

You know what? Screw it! Here's Schünzel strangling Connie :D

I've never seen this one before, and searching around the 'net gave me no results. I'm surprised, considering I scanned it from a book about Richard Oswald (more precisely from Richard Oswald: Regisseur und Produzent by Helga Belach and Wolfgang Jacobsen).

My image edititng skill are mediocre at best, and for that I apologise.
