3 out of 5 stars Bela Chingachgook   August 25, 2008
Annie Van Auken (Planet Earth)
ALPHA VIDEO's THE DEERSLAYER (1920) is a German cinematic production of one of James Fenimore Cooper's Leatherstocking tales. Although published last, "The Deerslayer" is actually volume one of the series; it introduces Natty Bumpo (here portrayed by Emil Marnelok) and his companion Chingachgook (Bela Lugosi).

Shot in the European countryside, and containing a fair amount of action sequences, the film is still marred by an overabundance of intertitles. The main interest here is seeing Bela Lugosi's only surviving silent-era performance.


Another horror movie actor in feathers is Boris Karloff, who plays a Native American in the 1920 version of Fenimore Cooper's THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS (with Wallace Beery), and an Indian CHIEF in Cecil B. DeMille's 1947 epic, UNCONQUERED (starring Gary Cooper and Paulette Goddard).


Parenthetical number preceding title is a 1 to 10 viewer poll rating found at a film resource website.

(6.2) The Deerslayer (silent-Germany-1920) - Emil Marnelock/Herta Heden/Bela Lugosi/Gottfried Kraus/Edward Eyseneck/Margot Sokolowska



3 out of 5 stars Better Then Usual For Alpha   July 15, 2006
G. Ratcheson (Washington)
9 out of 9 found this review helpful

While still "collector's quality", this is a much better print then I would normally expect from Alpha (normally Alpha appears to have little to no quality control; their dvd's often look like they were mastered from a 5th generation VHS copy). Previously hard to find early Bela Lugosi film in MUCH BETTER quality then the public domain dvd's on ebay.
