Review of Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979) by Adrian B — 20 Jan 2012
Werner Herzog's tale of the famed, blood sucking vampire is very silly, but is also entertaining. A woman is haunted by demons and her man is determined to stop them from harassing her. He ventures into a long journey to stop this vampire from his evil deeds, I guess.
He meets the vampire (Klaus Kinski, who looks incredibly different here than in "Aguirre: Wrath of Good") and invites him to stay in his old mansion. However, when the man sleeps, he sucks on his neck for his blood and eventually leaves to cause chaos and havoc, including killing everyone on ship at sea.
The man is then left confused and week minded. Bizarre story is corny, but it is fun to watch. One can tell that Herzog did this with a sense of humour and I suppose that is the important thing for a view, like me, to have during the movie.
Who doesn't love vampires anyways?
