New on DVD: Silent Era Phantom of the Opera with Lon Chaney Gets Blu-ray Treatment

DVDs Due Out November 1st:

Phantom of the Opera (1925) (Silent) [Blu-ray]

Description: A mad, masked composer lures a Paris singer down to his realm. Silent, with some color; reissued 1930 with some sound. Stars Lon Chaney, Mary Philbin, Norman Kerry, Arthur Carewe

The Phantom lives deep in the recesses of the Paris Opera House, well hidden from cruel and prying eyes. But when he falls in love with the beauteous Christine Dane, he becomes aware of his intense loneliness; in desperation, the Phantom kidnaps his love and carries her back to his secret lair. Assuring Christine that he will never harm her, he asks only one thing: that she never remove his mask.

Lon Chaney, "Man of a Thousand Faces," stars in this silent horror classic. In the film, based on Gaston Leroux's timeless novel, a disfigured, catacomb-dwelling musician (Chaney) terrorizes the Paris Opera House while attempting to turn a pretty chorus girl (Mary Philbin) into a star.
