Most interestin'!
Eat Cadbury's drugged chocolates, and you too can experience a slightly creepy rabbit, a punt ride, and crate loading.
8/10.

On the still-frame image on the BFI site, she looks like she's got a headache. Or as you mentioned, she's sighing at the end.

The Haunted Hotel - excellent! The climax in particular! Cor!
I haven't watched Hôtel Électrique yet.

Re: this flim is 100 flams old
It's good but the version of it on youtube is fucking terrible quality irritatingly
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
Also yes the end of the haunted hotel is incredible. hooray for old films, special effects, silence

Anybody want a peanut?
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
It's about the same i think. Except with a spanish titlecard, which was quite exciting.
The problem with old silent films is a combination of old terrible film being transferred to old terrible video being transferred to old terrible internet video means everything becomes a hellish conglomerate of a trillion different types of compression artefects, and by the time you try and watch it on some 80th iteration on youtube half of everyones faces have been erased and its impossible to see what anything is at all

Re: this flim is 100 flams old
but thank you also. i awlays forget to look on archive.org, because i'm a bit lazy really
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
don't tell anyone
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
I have now watched Hôtel Électrique. It's good, but I prefer The Haunted Hotel, mostly due to better ending.
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
The best bit of hotel electrique is definitely the hair brushing scene
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
I'd agree with that, I think.
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
I wish I was a haunted hairbrush

When the films of Louise Brooks hit the 100 year old mark, I daresay I might post a photo or two of her for... er... no reason whatsoever... (Be still, my beating heart)

Re: this flim is 100 flams old
hell yeah Luke
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
are you going to watch them all in order?
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
i am i think
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
i've not got anything better to do
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
and then i might buy the general and try and sync it up with my haiku salut soundtrack cd
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
there's a few of the Fatty Arbuckle ones that I haven't seen yet so I might use this as motivation to watch them too
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
There's 32 films in this boxset. I don't know how long it takes before poor old fatty arbuckle is superseded by buster keaton, but i assume it didn't take long
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
due to buster keaton being the most beautiful man in the world
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
Of course it should have been luke the dog that always got top billing and yet he probably didn't even get paid
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
looks like the first 13 are Arbuckles and presumably after that he was blacklisted forever. weep.
I ended up skipping forward to the Keaton ones because some of the Arbuckle ones are Not Very Good. but at least one of the ones that I watched is really great (NO SPOILERS ON WHICH ONE) and features Buster Keaton doing Facial Expressions
also I think I've only seen five or six of them

Re: this flim is 100 flams old
I had similar thoughts on this one and also praised the potato chopping scene!
Re: this flim is 100 flams old
Huzzah for both reviews! Also: that overhead face kick - lordy!
