Oldie but a Goodie

I like watching old movies because I can see where modern movies get their ideas from.

It is a film of death, different kinds of death - death of a person, death of hope, death of dreams. It has many religious ideas and also ancient ideas at the same time.

A very interesting and atmospheric watch and definitely one of the first horror films.
