The Golem and the Dancing Girl is now considered a lost film, though silentera.com reports a print may exist in an "eastern European film archive".[2] Troy Howarth wrote, "(the film) remains one of the earliest filmed examples of a horror spoof....makes it all the more regrettable that it has vanished so completely."[1]

Plot

Not much is known of the plot, since the film is considered lost, but it appears to have been a take-off spoofing the earlier 1915 film Der Golem. Wegener plays an actor who, upon discovering the fear his performance generates when he assumes the role of the Golem in a film, decides to wear the costume to a party he is to attend, in order to make an impression on a dancer (Salmanova) who will be there.[1]

Cast

• Paul Wegener as the Golem. IMDb credits Wegener as playing the Golem (as he did in the other two films in the trilogy), while silentera.com states this role was played by Gliese.

Reception

Troy Howarth wrote, "Not only is the film considered lost, it doesn't seem to have generated much notice upon its original release."[1]
