Storyline:Ulmer.Its heme of the horrors of war would be echoed in his later films.He was obviously influenced by his previous work with German director F.W.Murnau (and his filmNosferatu (1922)), and by Fritz Lang""s filmMetropolis (1927).Art-deco sets by art director Charles D.Hall, and stark B/W photography by John Mescall evoke the proper atmosphere.Some reviewers have considered it thefirstAmerican psychological horror film, with dark sexual repression, twisted relationships, and aberrant behavior (Satanism (devil worship), black mass orgies, necrophilia, pedophilia, sadistic revenge, murder and incest).The precursor to the western film genre was based on an 1896 story by Scott Marble.The film""s title was also the same as a popular contemporary stage melodrama.It was the most popular and commercially successful film of the pre-nickelodeon era, and established the notion that film could be a commercially-viable medium.With a degree of "cunning," Sir Wilfrid invited Vole into the office o light up his cigar.Vole casually asserted his innocence: "I haven""t murdered anybody.It""s absurd.Christine, hat""s my wife, she thought I may be implicated and that I needed a lawyer.That""s why I went to see Mr.Mayhew." Indeed, Vole needed a barrister-attorney, such as Sir Wilfrid, to plead his case in court.Vole also admitted how he had cooperatively made a statement to the police (that might be used against him).As the two then ran through the woods back to Pinehurst, Pam came across the corpse of Matt whose forehead was nailed to a tree with a railroad tie/spike(# 19 death)(off-screen)."As he is driving along, he suddenly spots the repossession men stopped at a traffic light - he speeds away to elude them.
