He died in 1936 Max Shreck was his name and yes Edward Cullen is a BITCH !!!!!!! A vampire shouldnt don Us or People magazine covers !!!! LAME Pop culture _ _ _s!!!
I love it so much better without music and sound. Makes is so much scarier. Horror movies today are just, tense music slowly getting louder, then immediately stopping, then oh! Someone jumps out of nowhere! Wow I didnt fucking see that coming a hundred miles away.
Horror movies these days abuse music. Which is why they all fucking blow and they're all incredibly generic.
I ADORE MAx Schreck!! THis IS by far, the most wonderful, creative, goosebump raising, horror vampire film in exisistece!! Everyone does a great job with their characterts, (especially Max Schreck, hehe,). I made a video, if anyone is interested. It is called, Max Schreck is just awesome. Type that in, or MaxSchrecklover. Please link, comment, and rate it if you watch it. I LOVE NOSFERATU!! He rocks!! I love twilghit, but this is better. Sorry.
yes but even in the book series, they talk about how the LEGENDS are always streched. and like anything, when people tell stories about something unusual they have seen....they tend to exaggerate
He is not the first vampire. This was just a spin off of the novel Dracula! Dracula isn't even the first literature on vampires. It was a poem written by Polidori called "The Vampyre." The first record of a vampire was a priest who translated the book of Psalms for a Prince. He signed his name as Упирь Лихый (Upir' Likhyi ). Which means something like Wicked Vampire. This is just the first movie on vampires.
Movies like this you have to actually focus on and pay attention to. If you want a movie to babysit you and give your brain some noise to tune out to, there's tons of movies in the theaters right now for that. Like the punisher or twilight.
Don't worry man I getcha. Infact by watching silent movies we're stepping atleast 80 years back in our technological development. It's like trying to teach people shakesperian english
I HAVE THIS ON DVD great piece of horror cinema history. its available on FLASHBACK ENTERTAINMENT titled Nosferatu a symphony of horror. well worth owning
He's called Graf Orlock but graf is German for count. There's also no such word as Nosferatu, before Bram Stoker. He got it from Emily Gerard's Land Beyond the Forest, a book about Transylvanian legends. Apparently she heard something like the Greek Nosphorous (plague bringer), or the Romanian necurat/ unclean and nesuferit/insufferable.
Bernard J. Taylor turned this movie into a wonderful musical, with performances by some of the greatest stage singers alive today. Some videos showing the songs in the context of this movie have been uploaded on here by sunnysiebahn. For some reason you can't include web addresses in posts, even for youtube, but if you put the name sunnysiebahn in the search bar you should find it.
yea max shrek is freaky. when they were filming they picked him for the role because he was arrested before with attacking several men and trying to bite them. I was really surprised because i would think that he would try to do the same when they were filming
yes.the whole situation surrounding this movie is somewhat of a question mark..and max shreck just happens to give the single most terrifying vampire performance ever and his last name shreck happens to be German for terror...coincidence?
Bela Lugosi's 'Dracula" is(1931)a far better film. To this day people imitate vampires using his famous accent.....truly a testament to the greatness of Bela Lugosi, the best horror movie actor ever.
Thanks for respecting my opinion, and of course Nosferatu has its fans as well. Someone correctly pointed out to me that without this movie, there would have never been a Bela Lugosi playing "Dracula."
That was an unfair comparison......"Nosferatu" was a SILENT FILM and the 1st screen incarnation of Bram Stoker's novel "Dracula", and by far the best. Lugosi was an excellent Dracula, but this film shows him in a totally different way.....he's not a suave European, but a rat-faced emaciated century old corpse. Its all in the eye of the artist, my friend.
he scares the shit out of me, in a rly good way :] some film maker should make a silent remake of this...hopefully not a famous one, cu they usually masecre things like this.
What is scary if the Mummy (McCain) picks picks Nosferatu ( Giuliani) as his running mate , they will suck the blood and life not just out of the USA but the World . There is an uncanny resemblance to Rudy Giuliani , now that is scary , Dumbo and Darth Beta to the Mummy and Nosferatu . The German one released in late 70's was great .Saw it in NYC and amazingly did not need to read the English subtitles , yes it was Giuliani's first Role .
Definitely one of the best vampire movies ever. Vampires(in my opinion) are meant to be scary, creepy. If vampires were just shooting werewolves or something like that in new movies, it's just like any other action flick!
Image Entertainment's Nosferatu A Symphony of Horror, or Kino Entertainment's Nosferatu are both good choices when buying this film. They are both digitally remastered and made from new reel-reel transfers. I recommend Kino!
this is so scary..... i heard about nosferatu on spongbobsqaurepants and came to check it out on here. but ther funny thing was on spongebob they morphed his face into a big grin with eyebrows high up the foredhead. :P
Nosferatu is actually an amazing film, i've been studying it in media. Just when you realise the deeper meaning in some of the scenes... and the editing is so smart, the way ellen calls to orlock, and he turns around and looks in the direction she was calling to... Amazing film. I really like the music aswell.. shame it's not on this clip :\
i know that this film was released in 1922 and that it has a PG Rating but to me, its the creepiest, eery, scary film ever made and thats what i love about it.
Nosferatu is indeed one of the best but in my books id have to say that "Interview With The Vampire" takes the cake. The movie fit the book so well, it was poetic, the music was beautiful and the way the characters just reach out to u was splendid=)
wow, I just realized that I made that first comment 1 year ago. Anyways, sorry (random), ya I see what your saying but I never saw intended to see IWTV as a horror flick, not even the book. Infact that whole romance vibe is what drew me to it in the first place(and I normally HATE romance movies), the fact that something so evil could be so deep and show so much emotion, it was so much more "real" than your typical vampire story. The books are still wayyy better than the movie though.
Best movie ever - he's so sexy, u know who.
