Plot:
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is one of the first and most famous examples of German Expressionism, and its influences can still be seen in cinema today. A young man and his friend visit a traveling fair in the hills of Northern Germany where one of the acts is Dr. Caligari's presentation of a hypnotized sleepwalker named Cesare who can tell the future. Cesare predicts the young man will be dead by the next morning, and he is in fact murdered that night. Loaded with chills and shadows, the twist ending will haunt you.
