Kaes, Anton. 2006.

This book chapter argues the 1919 film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari manifests the anxiety and trauma of immediate post-World War I Germany into one of the first horror films. Keas analyzes such elements of the film as costume design, characterization, and story, drawing similarities between them and the war which predated this film by a year.
