The CinePearl Take

The Golem: How He Came into the World is a classic-era German film that blends monster, horror and fantasy — expect chills best enjoyed with the lights low and imaginative, otherworldly settings. Carl Boese and Paul Wegener directs and the script comes from Henrik Galeen. Loni Nest and Lothar Müthel are among the leads. Made in Weimar Republic, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring German-language films. Released in 1920, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 85 minutes, it keeps a brisk pace.
