My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

Vampyr (1932)

This partly silent film directed by Carl Theodor Dreyer, who a film earlier delivered upon this world the classic film The Passion of Joan of Arc giving us one of the greatest performances by an actress ever, here dabbled in Vampires.   It's a slow film but with great frightful textures.  Not for anyone who dislikes dramatic silent films.   Grade: B+
