Tonight, from 1921, directed by F.W. Muranu, it's THE HAUNTED CASTLE!
Scandals and murder threats rock an upper-class party in a really spooky castle!
One of Murnau's earliest surviving films, though his eighth picture overall.

And as a ghoulish footnote, Murnau’s skull was stolen from its grave in Germany. Rumoured to have been stolen by German occultists due to Murnau’s connection with the occult funded “Nosferatu.”

But Murnau’s work is so much more than that one infamous film.

Le vient d’annoncer le dépôt «permanent» de 7 tableaux fauves qui complètent son fonds d’art moderne, déjà très riche, tableaux qui avaient été déposés . Ils ont aussi acquis un tableau de Gabriele Munter (Murnauer Strasse, 1908) de même provenance 👍

Hmmm... Murnau’s “Faust” (1926) or Christensen's “Häxan?” (1920-22).

Both brilliant. But which one would I choose to put in my top three devilry/possession/demonic film choice? Tough choice.

The Exorcist 3 is a great sequel and a strong contender.

I’m now thinking that I should include one of my favourite Mephisto movies and include Murnau’s “Faust.” A more subtle sort of ‘possession.’ And a brilliantly sly and mischievous portrayl of the devil.
