Häxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages 1922
The history of witchcraft through 1922 presented with wit and effects incredible looking now and no doubt utterly terrifying in 1922. Truly interesting history material, and seriously, the effects of demons, witches and devils are something to behold. The Criterion Collection also includes the 1968 recut version with a jazz soundtrack and narration by the inimitable William S. Burroughs.

The Seventh Seal 1957
Ingmar Bergman's Swedish existentialist version of Don Quixote, only the knight errant fights not imaginary villians, but the Specter of Death Himself. Powerful performances and heavy material in this slow-burner classic.
