Reuniting the star and director of Das Cabinet des Dr. CaIigari, The Hands of Orlac [OrIac’s Hände] is a deliciously twisted thriIler that blends grand guignol thrilIs with the visuaI and performance styles of German Expressionism.
Based on a novel by medicaI-horror novelist Maurice Renard, it charts the mentaI disintegration of a concert pianist (Conrad Veidt) whose hands are amputated after a train crash, and replaced with the hands of an executed murderer. When Orlac’s father is murdered by the dead man’s hands, Orlac begins a steady descent towards madness.
The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present The Hands of OrIac for the first time on home video in the UK in a speciaI Blu-ray edition.
