Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror, 1922
A film by F.W. Murnau
An all-time horror favorite, this silent film was originally an unauthorized, but riveting, retelling of Bram Stoker’s classic novel of love, loss and the undead. This is the most complete version in circulation, since the author’s widow demanded its destruction following successful lawsuits in the 1920s. Starring Max Schreck, who delivers a brilliant performance as the forlorn vampire, Count Orlok. (Browse our Movie Archive)
