👀
The Bewitched Inn (1897)
Directed by Georges Méliès
Quick Hit
The Bewitched Inn shows clear design choices, even when the material itself is uneven. You can feel the medium learning its own nightmares.
Full Take
From a craft standpoint, the film is strongest when its design and pacing stay aligned. The visual logic holds up better than some of the narrative shortcuts. It feels like cinema inventing horror in public, one trick-shot at a time. The compressed runtime makes every effect choice visible. Net result: SOLID.
