Phantom of the Opera
“The screen's classic of terror!”
HorrorRomance
Following a tragic accident that leaves him disfigured, crazed composer Erique Claudin transformed into a masked phantom who schemes to make beautiful young soprano Christine Dubois the star of the opera and wreak revenge on those who stole his music.
VIBE
A lavish, Technicolor gothic romance steeped in tragic obsession. The film feels like a grand, old-fashioned opera, full of soaring music, shadowed corridors, and a doomed love that haunts the gilded halls of the Paris Opera House.
