F. W. Murnau's "Nosferatu" (1922) has been established as the ultimate vampire film, particularly faithful to Bram Stoker's famous novel "Dracula." Gustav von Wagenheim stars as real estate agent Hutter, and Max Schreck as Herr Orlok, the pair finding castles on the Carpathian mountains a little bit more sinister than not, as they embark on a haunting journey of cut fingers, coffins and mysterious deaths. A silent, dark and bloodcurdling atmosphere terrifyingly embraces one of the most haunting stories ever to have been written.

Expert Review:
Considered to be one of the great triumphs of German Expressionism, F. W. Murnau’s Nosferatu is a loose adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Real estate agent Thomas Hutter is called to Transylvania to help a new client who wishes to purchase property in Germany. However, what Hutter doesn’t realize is that his client is Count Orlok, an ancient vampire! With impeccable use of lighting, twisted sets, and a truly nightmarish performance by Max Schreck as Orlok, Nosferatu is a silent classic that still frightens viewers to this day.
