Nosferatu

Here’s a link to stream the classic silent horror film: Nosferatu (1922). The first — and creepiest — adaptation of Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula. Drawing on his art history background, director F.W. Murnau creates a subtly menacing atmosphere, intensified through striking visual compositions and innovative special effects. Max Schreck, who plays the title role, seems to have been born to play the part. His last name is the German word for scream, fright, or fear.

Fascination with this film continues up to the present day. Shadow of a Vampire (2000) is an account of the film’s production, except it presumes that Schreck was a real vampire.
