Holy jumping Christmas! The plot is very thin, but it still provides enough structure for an ongoing parade of deformed characters (almost all of whom were true "freaks" from circus sideshows) that keeps going even through the climax. Incredibly daring, and well worth watching.

Freaks is an abnormality- no pun intended. Even though it was made in the early 30's, the ending contains a horrifying image rivaling most modern movies. American Horror Story left me with negative baggage, but this movie is near perfect and removed all of the baggage effortlessly.

A wonder that this film was ever made -and it probably would have stayed in the works if it had been marketed as anything else as a 'horror movie' (or, nowadays, 'cult classic'). One of the most refreshingly matter-of-fact approaches to physical disability in cinema. The freaks are the heroes.

Not a horror film really until the end. Instead, we just get a standard romance story that has some dull characters that move at a slow pace. Still, I was actually surprised how respectful the film was. It doesn't really make up for the dull story but I appreciated that.

Awesome. I was most surprised by how invested I was in the characters. Browning could have just played it all for shock value (which, in '32 it woulda been shocking), but he didn't. There's real heart here, and the drama between them all is fascinating. That doesn't mean that there aren't some eerie parts though, like the chase in the rain at the end. To the credit of all involved, that tonal shift actually worked.

It really isn't a horror, is it? Freaks made me feel something. It's just a collection of circus attractions showing that they have lives as well, lives filled with love, revenge, passion, all that jazz. And it is effective.
