About

You can watch Dante's Inferno (1911) for free on Darkroom.

The classic tale of Dante's journey through hell, loosely adapted from the Divine Comedy and inspired by the illustrations of Gustav Doré. This historically important film stands as the first feature from Italy and the oldest fully-surviving feature in the world, and boasts beautiful sets and special effects that stand above other cinema of the era.

Dante wanders through a surreal landscape of punishment to navigate the terrifying depths of the afterlife. These early visual effects recreate Gustav Doré’s haunting illustrations with a primitive, dreamlike intensity.
