Silent Film Series presents Haxan (1922)
October 30 @ 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM
$4 – $7
The silent film era returns to our screen accompanied by the mighty Wurlitzer!
Part history lesson followed by re-enactments with actors, this film depicts the history of witchcraft from its earliest days through to the present day (in this case,1922 or thereabouts). The result is a documentary-like film that must be among the first to use re-enactments as a visual and narrative tool. From pagan worship to satanic rites to hysteria, the film takes you on a journey through the ages with highly effective visual sequences.
