Les Vampires

Les Vampires [1915] directed by Louis Feuillade was actually a series of 10 short films that chronicles the exploits of a band of criminals and the reporter who tries to bring them to justice. I actually found this one online, someone had posted it on Google. It has since become hard to find. Though it was not the best source for the viewing, it did allow me to see it at no cost. Nothing spectacular about this but it was fun to watch. Especially in respect to economy of production. The same rooms used as different locations. Would not mind a repeat showing but not prepared to spend the money to bring it in.

It has left me with a wish to see other films by Feuillade including "Judex" and "Fantômas".
