Review of Nosferatu (1922) by Andrew G — 02 May 2011

Wow this is the only Dracula film that has actuly freaked me out. Its hard not to see why with the apperance of Count Orlock, Honstely thats a vampire. Every thing about this Greman Expressionist masterpiece is genuley Chilling with unsettling scenes where Count Orlock Appers out of thin air then slowy walks to towards Hunters room , then with out waring the bedroom door opens to revle that freaky looking figure entering the room is really hypnotic.

My personal favortie shot of this entire film is when the camera is below deck on the dermeter then Count orlock walks right passed ehhr thats the stuff of nightmares right there. F.W Murnow you trully have given the worlds only turlly timless vampire flick wicht will still freak out audince in the future as it did when the film was first realsed.

On a final note if some one could find a print of the lost hungarian 1922 dracula film and of course the holy grail of lost films the 1927 Lon Chaney and Todd Browing vampire flick London after midnight the history of the vampire on film will be completed.

In the mean time at least conetmpoary audiance can still enjoy the 1931 bela lugosi masterpice Dracula and F.W Murnaws Nosferatu. 100/100 one of my many favortie films.
