The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari's influence on Rob Zombie.

In 1998 Rob Zombie released a video for the single "Living Dead Girl". It recreated several scenes from The film. Zombie even plays the role of Caligari. In addition to imitating the poor image quality of aged film, the video also made use of the expressionistic sepia, aqua, and violet tinting used in The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
