I absoloutely love movies with a twist and one that comes to mind is an old 1920 silent film 'The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.' I watched this film for my A level moving image arts. At first i was worried i wouldnt like it because it is a silent movie, infact its the total opposite. The music makes it more intense and adds more atmosphere drawing the audience in. The movie is a famous example of german expressionism and is believed to be one of the most greatest horror movies of all time. I really like the style of the film with the angular set design and dramatic shadows creating a disturbing visual effect. Most modern movies have a pretty predictable ending but this twisted ending took me by surprize.
