When people think Carl Theodor Dreyer they think, “Who?” Which inevitably leads me to trying to mention The Passion of Joan of Arc to help them recall the name. A film which, let’s face it, the majority of people have never watched. So this week I dig up the Dutch filmmaker’s first “talkie”. Thankfully it’s about vampires, so it has way more appeal then any legitimate historical figure could ever hope to garner. And since their doesn’t seem to be a trailer for the film any where on the Internerd, I’ve decided that I will simply use Massive Attack’s video for Angel, which is set entirely to scenes from the film Vampyr, to act as the preview.

    Is this a Bizarro site I’ve wandered in to? Razorback to Carl Theodor Dreyer’s Vampyr is enough to give anyone mental whiplash.

    You got me Robert, I am totally making this up as I go. Glad you made it over here as I look forward to hearing your views.
