A cracking good story...in those wonderful moments where Musidora's kohl-marked face stares right out of the screen and into your soul, it's terribly perfect.

Louis Feuillade's extraordinary ten-part silent serial of 1916, running just under eight hours, is one of the supreme delights of film.

Top CriticClassic Crime serial, with superb storytelling.

[Director Louis Feuillade] masterfully builds suspense over the film's massive, nearly 7-hour running time.
05/26/06
The elaborate production, written and directed by Louis Feuillade, is an epic modern crime thriller, the precursor to many of today's multi-million dollar action films.

Blows almost any modern action film out of the water.

Les Vampires is one of France's great classic contributions to the world of popular cinema...

...this magical mystery tour through a deadly Parisian landscape is, like A Trip to the Moon, a towering and radical work of narrative fiction.

It's possible to overstate the extent to which all this is a bunch of fun: if shown, as it often is, in one great unnatural marathon, it can be sheer torture.
