Watch Les Vampires

This silent-era crime serial follows a journalist, trying to uncover the deeds of criminal underworld gang "the Vampires". Told in ten pieces, the story unfolds a tale of dark morality and criminal enterprise. Despite naming conventions, the villains are not their supernatural counterparts, but more a symbolic naming convention that criminals are masters of the night. Touted by modern critics as an examination of how the silent film era pushed the envelope for what was permissible on the silver screen, it is an expression of some of humanity's darker aspects.
