Dante’s Inferno, 1924
Directed: Henry Otto

Dante’s Inferno, 1935
Directed: Harry Lachman
Notable cast: Spencer Tracey, Claire Trevor, Henry B. Walthall
Less an adaptation of the Inferno than a movie which alludes to the Inferno, this film is set in a carnival (run by a corrupt businessman) which includes scenes from Dante’s work.

Directed: Raoul Ruiz, Peter Greenaway, Tom Phillips

Directed: Victor Cook, Mike Disa, Sang-Jin Kim, Shûkô Murase, Jong-Sik Nam, Lee Seung-Gyu
