Review of Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979) by Jeremy S — 27 Oct 2007
Kinski must be the most fantastic Count Dracula in movie history: utterly alien, rodent-like and deeply tragic. Every scene he's in is pure cinema gold and proof that CG will never completely overcome the immediacy of a real performance.
Isabelle Adjani, for her part, is sort of perfect as Lucy and the whole mix is the most unusual (and oddly downbeat) take I've seen on the Dracula story. So many rats...!!! Love the unexpected ending.
