Review of Shadow of the Vampire (2000) by Max H — 09 Oct 2014
Bizarre, creepy, thought-provoking, and ultimately too short is the performance-driven film, the Shadow of the Vampire.
This fictional take on the production of the classic, Nosferatu, doesn't last long enough to properly develop it's characters and story. On the other hand, the effective direction makes up for its missteps.
Despite its 90 minute running time, the premise unfolds terrifically and Dafoe and Malkovich deliver excellent performances in one of the best vampire films in recent years.
