Paul Leni’s THE CAT AND THE CANARY: New 4K Restoration!
(1927, 79 min)
A stormy night, a decaying mansion, and a fortune at stake: greedy relatives gather for a twenty-year-old will… and an escaped lunatic lurks nearby. Director Paul Leni turns this “old dark house” setup into a gothic visual feast, packed with suspense, clever twists, and jaw-dropping style. Stylish, inventive, and endlessly thrilling, The Cat and the Canary set the standard for American horror, delivering mystery, chaos, and unforgettable visuals — all without a single spoken word.
