Great silent horror classic starring Lon Chaney and a young Joan Crawford. This is bizarre and wonderful. Directed by Tod Browning, who was truly a Wizard of the Weird.

For maximum enjoyment, I recommend going into this one not knowing much about it. I wouldn't even read the synopsis on Flixster; it gives too much away, in my opinion.

I caught some of this on IFC and really liked it. Good, early work from Sandra Oh. I want to see this in its entirety.
