Cthulhu
While I await SPN 6.2, I'm watching The Call of Cthulhu, a 2005 film of the Lovecraft story by the same name, made in the style (and with the cameras and film) of a 1925 silent movie.
It's fantastic! The music is brilliant. I don't know a damn thing about Lovecraft or Cthulhu except what I've gathered by osmosis from the internets, but this story seems perfect for the silent genre, and the filmmakers and actors have done a great job of using an anachronistic medium to make the story thrilling.
If you get a chance, I recommend it. It's less than an hour long and it's well worth your time.
