Review of Nosferatu (1922) by Mr.frank G — 21 Jul 2009
Nosferatu, as well as being one of my outright favourite movies of all time, it remains the second most creepiest movie I have ever seen (losing out to Inland Empire obviously), from beginning to end it has this macabre, eerie look that never lets up, And with so many contemporary horror films relying on loud noises to scare you, this one has a suttle quietness and after all it is a silent film but that only enhances the atmosphere and makes you feel like your in a nightmare, that wicked shadow ascending the staircase, the shape of Dracula coming through the doorway which barely fits his body, these are images which you don't forget, they have all become popular screenshots for years to come and perhaps for all time.
By far the greatest movie of the silent era.
