Hitchcock uses many experimental methods including a false perspex floor to show the suspicious lodger pacing around his room above the family below, who fear their tenant as the killer.

I also loved how lively this film felt, especially for a silent film it was quite fluid and felt alive...Most of all Hitch really kept the tension at a fever pitch.
