    As for the movie that was released in 1922, it is very excellent Where the current vampires were quoted from him With their elegant image

    This is it. This is the movie that finally helped me "get" the appeal of silent films. Max Schreck's chilling performance as Count Orlock still holds up. The damaged nature of the film real only serves to add to the frightening atmosphere. This is from the era before Hollywood and the Haze Code took over, ladies and gentlemen. The era when films were still being made mostly by individual artists with nothing but a vision and passion for the craft. Will it shock and scare you like it intended for its original audience? Probably not. But its absolutely worth a watch nonetheless.

    The film Nosferatu is perfect and wonderful, with a very well thought out story and the drama in the right tone, I recommend it to anyone.

    A great horror silent film! Some shots of Nosferatu were legendary.

    This movie must've been amazing in 1922. Today's standards feature far scarier and more effective ways to build tension, however. By sheer pedigree, this movie deserves at least a 3. I prefer the atmosphere and cinematography of 1932's Vampyr more; I would rank Caligari higher than this; and more has been done since that ranks higher in the ratings.

    Watching it as a piece of history, and through an educational lens as cinema, will be more rewarding than seeking straight-up entertainment. So I've split the difference with 3.5 Stars and entrust the viewer to determine on what level they would like to engage.

    I am not a fan of silent movies in general but this one is worth the experience. The soundtrack contributes greatly to the building sense of dread as Murnau takes us on a nightmarish journey of death.
  • Rowan KrzysiakJanuary 16, 2025
    The performances are hokey, the production is cheap and history has not been kind to the story in that you basically already know what it has to offer. That said, the Count still manages to cut a fairly horrific figure.
