It's not only the feel, but also how the special effects are made. I don't know why, but I think the optical tricks they used back in the day to convey a certain outcome, are more...real and imaginative as nowadays. I just have to remember the ghostly appearance of Dr.Mabuse as in "The Testament of Dr.Mabuse" (1933), while his restless spirit posesses poor Prof. Baum.
Modern films utilizing the b/w technique..."The elephantman" comes to mind...

Agreed, several of those films from that era had a feel all its own and the specific use of shadows and light gave an atmosphere that made the effects a natural sense of belonging (if that makes sense,lol,best I can describe). Other great films I love that I love the effects in are Faust and Haxan. There are modern films that use are shot in black and white, mostly indie films, but they never look like the films of the 20's and 30's.

Well, I think, it's also not desireable to recreate the 20`-30' film-look. At least not to the mainstream audience. I guess, what makes the greatest difference today, is, that filmmakers have the choice to use whatever technique they want. As a consequenz, b/w is lowered to a plain stilistic criteria.
