Since today is my birthday, I had to find something extra special to get for all of you. Yes, I know birthdays usually work the other way around - but hey, I am a giving kind of guy. So what better to hand you than another public domain favorite movie of mine, Freaks.
It is a horror movie about sideshow performers. Instead of using makeup and actors though, the films director (and producer) Tod Browning hired actual carnival performers. That, in its own right, makes it even stranger. The film was also banned in the United Kingdom for thirty years.
