Faust aux enfers est un film réalisé par Georges Méliès, sorti en 1903.

Synopsis

Le diable Méphisto entraîne Faust pour une longue descente sous terre. Il fait apparaître les uns après les autres des danseuses, un monstre tentaculaire, des démons en culotte et des flammes. Faust refuse de le suivre dans une crevasse, mais est contraint par Méphisto à descendre avec lui. Arrivés au fond de la caverne, ils voient des démons dotés de piques dansant. Méphisto surgit alors du sous-sol et déploie de larges ailes de chauve-souris, au milieu de la liesse générale.

In a room in a medieval castle, Satan examines six money bags, and then locks them in a large chest. A blond man, creeping into the room on his knees, jumps toward the table where he expects to find the money bags. Realizing the money is in the chest, he forces it open, but the lid slams down on his fingers. When he opens it again, the money bags are jump and frolicking of their own accord. The man slams the lid down and sits on it, but he falls off when six young women in devilish outfits emerge one by one from the chest. They transform the money bags into spears and chase the man around the room; when the man tries to take refuge in the chest, it magically changes position. The women disappear, but the chest itself comes to life before transforming into a demon and tormenting the man. Satan and the demon throw the man in the safe, and they and the women dance around it as fire and smoke issue from it. Finally, the safe explodes to reveal the original money bags, safe and sound.
