The Deadly Flowers, is a 1918 Egyptian movie. and starring Mohammed Karim.
The Deadly Flowers — الأزهار المميتة — stands as one of the earliest known works in Egyptian cinema, a silent film dating to the pioneering years of Arabic filmmaking when the medium was still finding its footing in the region. Its existence marks an important but fragile chapter in the history of Egyptian cinema, as the original prints are believed to have been lost, making it one of many early Arab films that survives only in name and fragmentary historical record. As a document of cinema's first footsteps in the Arab world, The Deadly Flowers carries significant cultural and archival weight, even in its probable absence.
