The Thieving Hand

The Thieving Hand is a 1908 short film produced and directed by Stuart Blackton. Though he was better known for his work in animation, this silent film is live action with some interesting effects having to do with a prosthetic arm with a mind of its own.

Youtube has it online:


TCM has an overview. Weird Wild Realm has a plot synopsis and similar information on several of Blackton's films.
