Clip from "The Horla"

This sensational clip is a short, but creepy scene from an Italian produced adaptation of Guy de Maupassant's "The Horla." The eponymous creature is depicted with a weird and menacing elegance rarely seen elsewhere. Of course, given that Maupassant's Horla was an invisible being, one wonders how well the film follows its source material. Unfortunately, little else (to my knowledge) has surfaced on the web about this movie.



A brief rundown of production stats from its production website shows that it's a short 35 minute movie. If other parts are as imaginative and eerie as this brief scene, then we can only hope it will surface online or on DVD in the near future.
