Review of Nosferatu (1922) by Jonathan B — 06 Nov 2010
First of all, if you have the version with the Type-O-Negative soundtrack, mute it. It's kind of horrible and doesn't even match whats happening on screen. Other than that this film is pretty cool, very influential, and slightly scary. It is a very striking and captivating film.
Max Schreck is a scary dude...because of the films age and the amazing make-up, I could possibly believe that this was a documentary on the last vampire in existence (obviously data supports my theory...in the form of the film shadow of the vampire).
Somehow this is a more enjoyable scare than contemporary horror movies, without all the sudden fright sounds and unneeded gore.
