The Golem (1920)
7/10
Visually striking, interesting story but filled with stereotyped characters.

I saw this recently for the first time after my curiosity piqued regarding the Golem. The film is about a priest who uses sorcery to create Golem, a big creature outta clay a la Frankenstein, after fearing mass exodus of his people by the Emperor. Initially the priest uses the Golem as a household servant but later he takes it to the palace to show it to the Emperor. Things turn ugly at home n at the palace.... The film is slow at times but the photography is striking n the story interesting.
