No dialogue spoken just music. Made in 1922
A pesar de que Nosferatu no es otra cosa mas que una libre adaptación de Dracula logra crear un verdadero terror no genere la atracción de Dracula si no una extraordinaria repulsión por los no muertos
I've recently read Stoker's Dracula, and in this case, it sort of got in the way (if you've got patience, I recommend the read). Nosferatu is a free adaptation of the book, so I was a little fixated on the differences.
Although I really liked how it was filmed, I never really go...( read more)
a classic in all the right sense...... even though this was shot in 1922, the acting is great, the sets are great, and the mood is eerie.... amazing.
Painfully slow moving, but chock full of seriously creepy imagery.
Long and so boring. i could barely keep my eyes open, wasn't scary it is just a bit eerie
Innovative, truly amazing in how well the material of the original story was covered, the transition of scenes, the way the director potrays the menacing profile of Nosferatu. The expressions of Jonathan are amazing of course though seeing as it is a silent and the acting has to...( read more)
excelente! las sombras pintadas son lo màs curioso! sì da miedo el vampiro!
The classic tale of the Count Orlok and his arrival to Bremen which brought a horrid plague with it.
Based on Bram Stoker's Dracula. Very interesting to analyse.
SUPER classic. almost 90 years old. no sound, though, but interesting to see
The first really effective vampire film. The look of Count Orlok obviously influencing the look of 'Mr Barlow' from Tope Hooper's 1979 television movie 'Salem's Lot'. The film has atmosphere in bucket loads. German silent cinema was unbeatable at this time, rivalling early Holly...( read more)
A fantastic film that really does continue to hold its own in the horror genre. There's really not much more to say than Nosferatu is an absolute classic, and all fans of the genre are urged to seek it out.
a landmark achievement in horror cinema as max schreck brings vampires to the big screen with a performance matched by few since. it's atmospheric, creepy and dramatic with amazing imagery and use of shadows and locations. all that and it's a silent film from 1922... 1922! seriou...( read more)
If you love scary movies then you have to see this one! It terrified a generation!
omg 1922!!!! it's freakin old!! come on it must be hell to find this movie somewhere...
Almost 100 years old, yet still hold chills and mesmerizing images to keep you glued to the screen from start to finish.
One of the creepiest versions of Dracula I have seen. Max Schreck performs in top form and brings the vampire to life. The shots of him rising out of his coffin and the shadow of him going to Nina's room and then approaching her are ingenious. The only thing that felt odd was ...( read more)
Based illegally on Bram Stoker's Dracula, F. W. Murnau's film is undeniably the best and probably the most faithful of the films based on the novel. That's just my opinion.
The movie itself gives a look into the history of not only the character of Dracula, but of modern day ...( read more)
I will never again be able to watch this movie with all the lights out. Everyone involved with this film outdid themselves - something I believe is evident most of all in its lasting ability to terrify its audiences nearly 90 years after its debut. One of my absolute favorite hor...( read more)
It's worth a watch to see where all the Dracula stuff came from, but it's not scary by today's standards and maybe it was because I was tired, but the plot is a bit hard to follow at times.
The most memorable Dracula film ever made. Amazing cinematography and Schreck's performance is unforgettable. This is truly on of Germany's finest films ever.
This is a great vanpire movie and an excellent silent film. It intruduces us to a new kind of vampire that does not look human but more like a rodent. Max Schreck is such a convincing actor that many people in his time truly believed him to be a vampire. This is a great alternati...( read more)
"Is this your wife? What a lovely throat."
Nosferatu is one of the most famous horror films of all time. Not only that, it also features one (if not more) of the most iconic scenes in Film history. But how many people have actually sat through the entire film? Less...( read more)
ahaha, some parts are really funny ("is this your wife? what a wonderful neck!" - and hutter takes no notice of absolutely anything XD), but it surely gets boring, after a while ._.
this is creepy. it doesnt get any better by the end. ah hollywood happy ending.
This movie is just amazing! It's incredible to think this was made in 1922, I mean, with the numerous fade in fade out, and speed effects, it's hard to believe. Of course, the acting makes you laugh sometimes, but thats whats great about the silent-era movies. Actor couldn't use ...( read more)
Wasn't all that bad. The one big problem I had with this film was the music. At times it was ridiculous and didn't fit the scene. I think the mood was destroyed at times by this.
I still find it hard to write a review for such a well done film that still gives me the creeps, even though it hardly has any frights with no CGI. Over three quarters of a century old and still worth watching, I wonder how many movies will still be this powerful.
If you haven't...( read more)
