"Two Monks" is a 1934 American Pre-Code horror film directed by Wilfred Buckland. The film is notable for its exploration of psychological horror and its innovative use of expressionistic techniques, which were relatively uncommon in American cinema at the time. Buckland, who had a background in art direction and set design, brought a unique visual style to the film, incorporating stark contrasts, dramatic lighting, and surreal set pieces that heightened the film's eerie atmosphere.

The narrative of "Two Monks" revolves around a complex tale of guilt, redemption, and the supernatural. It tells the story of two monks who are haunted by their past actions and the resulting psychological torment. The film delves into themes of sin, penance, and the struggle for spiritual salvation, making it a rich text for analysis in terms of both its thematic content and its stylistic execution.

"Two Monks" stands out in the horror genre for its emphasis on character development and psychological depth. Unlike many horror films of its era, which often relied heavily on external threats and physical monsters, Buckland's film focuses on the internal struggles of its protagonists. This introspective approach allows for a more nuanced exploration of fear and morality, setting "Two Monks" apart from its contemporaries.

The film's reception at the time of its release was mixed, with some critics praising its artistic ambition and others finding its narrative difficult to follow. However, in subsequent years, "Two Monks" has gained a cult following and is now appreciated for its bold visual style and its contribution to the development of psychological horror in cinema. The film remains a significant work in Buckland's oeuvre and a fascinating example of early American horror filmmaking.
