THE ERL KING-1931-A man
races on horse back through a forest with his dying son but death in
the form of the lurking Erl King (elf king) pursues them. This early
French sound film (based on a novel Goethe) features crude but
effective sfx. It was made in France by Marie-Lousie Iribe, a former actress
who formed her own film company and directed her own movies. Highly
recommended.
Thanks for reading!
