The Seven Castles of the Devil (1901)
Directed by Ferdinand Zecca
Overview
An oppressive droning score makes this rendering of the Faust legend quite disturbing to watch. The film itself consists of a number of impressive ‘appearing out of thin air’ effects, some lavish costumes, sets and backdrops. A climactic sword fight between a man and the Devil is a standout scene.
Length 11 minutes
