Very nice list how about Nosferatu? that is a great one. Im not much of a Harold Lloyd fan, but its cool you like silent comedy. I have my own stuff on youtube.

I think because I had already seen Herzog's Nosferatu and Dracula with Bela Lugosi, I didn't find Murnau's Nosferatu particurlarly exciting. The atmosphere and the effects/make-up were excellent though. It's one I need to watch again. I went for Faust as my Murnau choice here, I also enjoyed Sunrise.
