The fall of the studio film system gave rise to independent films. This rise showed America that you did not need a big budget and famous actors to draw in a large audience at the box office. One genre that really took off was the horror genre. This genre plays on the fear of human kind whether it be demons, ghosts, or monsters which are supernatural beings which one does not have a defense for. One may also have the fear of death or pain which could be caused by another human being; this fear…

Ms. Noah September 18th, 2015 The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari Written by Hans Janowitz and Carl Mayer; and directed by Robert Wiene, this film is considered to be the first horror movie ever made.

Instead of building a set, they used large, blank canvases and what…
