I really liked the first episodes, but, unfortunately, the later ones didn't impress me that much.

Bribery and blackmail, kidnapping and murder, twist and turns, this serial has it all. While the pacing may be a tad slow it's broken up into ten self contained but interconnected episodes so you can easily watch it at your leisure. Even now it still remains an exciting series of mystery and intrigue and it's very stylistically creative.

Not a ton of artistic merit here, but entertaining fare nonetheless. A serialized tale of a journalist (who seems to produce precious little journalism) on the trail of the underworld gang "The Vampires". Except for a few slow spots, the film is loaded with schemes, surprises, reversals, captures and escapes. Along the way, they run the gamut of old-school thriller staples like disguises, poisons, gases, hidden compartments and hypnotism.

Unique concept film that hasn't aged as well as some of its contemporaries, but there are some very cool ideas that influenced (probably) hundreds of films in the years to come.

I've seen about half of Les Vampires, including some of the more "integral" chapters, and while I'm impressed by the thought that went into the stories, I was somewhat bored overall.

Dull story, dull visuals, plus the plot twist at the end of Chapter 1 made my bullshit alarm go off
