Alejandro G @sdafdgfsdsa 14h A classical masterpiece that changed the horror genre forever. The silent film provides a wonderful break from most modern horror movies, while still providing an enjoyable watching experience. While not all that scary, it is still a great choice of movie to watch. I highly recommend.

About the story, I believe every cinephile knows the plot. F.W. Murnau changed the name "Dracula" to "Count Graf Orlok" and "Nosferatu" to avoid paying copyright to Bram Stoker’s widow. However, there are evidence that the film "Drakula halála" ("Dracula’s Death") was made in 1921, and it would be the first film inspired by Bram Stoker’s novel. Unfortunately, this film is considered lost since no copy survived. Therefore, "Nosferatu" (1922) is the first surviving cinematic adaptation of Bram Stoker’s novel, but not necessarily the first movie about Dracula. My vote is ten. Title (Brazil): "Nosferatu" My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/ See more Shaun R @Shaun666 Nov 16 I watched this in 2025, well over 100 years after it was made. It was like watching a modern day art house movie and it hard to forget this was made in 1922. It is easily the greatest looking vampire ever putting to shame the rubbish looking monsters since.

I love Eggers, but this is my least favorite See more Patrick C Oct 20 Let me cut to the quick - I have been watching films for 50 years but had never seen 'Nosferatu' before tonight. It is quite simply a sheer masterpiece and a film that has from out of nowhere gone to the top of my favourite of all time list. To think it was released 103 years ago, but its indescribable atmosphere and eeriness still possess the power to chill. Visually it is unsurpassed, so rich in symbolism and metaphor. I feel elated that something so utterly brilliant and bewitching could have been made when cinema was in its infancy. See more Read all reviews
