You will enjoy it, I am sure, but Lang has that very negative emotional effect on me. Watching Metropolis or Mabuse produces such dehumanizing effect that after the film ends I am not looking for another one. The opening scenes of Mabuse, with that huge all-dominating machine shaking the whole building is so full of horror that it is capable of inducing strong depression.The fact it is done so incredibly well makes it even more depressing. So the overal effect of the film is bone-chilling in the extreme, and there is hardly any overt violence happening there.
This is something the schlock movie makers like Spielberg should have watched before making the SPR kaka. There is much more horror in one minute of Mabuse than in the whole of the SPR.
