| Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] I Sverige ansås den for at være så skræmmende, at den blev forbudt i halvtreds år, men i 1972 fik svenskerne endelig lov til at se Nosferatu i biograferne. Bram Stokers Dracula var inspirationen til historiens første og bedste vampyrfilm, af F.W. Murnau. Max Schreck spiller det blodsugende nattevæsen med dyrisk tilstedeværelse, og hans ikoniske tolkning af Karpaternes ukendte greve er blevet forbilledet for alle efterfølgende filmvampyrer. Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] An iconic film of the German expressionist cinema, and one of the most famous of all silent movies, F. W. Murnaus Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror continues to haunt and, indeed, terrify modern audiences with the unshakable power of its images. By teasing a host of occult atmospherics out of dilapidated set-pieces and innocuous real-world locations alike, Murnau captured on celluloid the deeply-rooted elements of a waking nightmare, and launched the signature Murnau-style that would change cinema history forever.
In this first-ever screen adaptation of Bram Stokers Dracula, a simple real-estate transaction leads an intrepid businessman deep into the superstitious heart of Transylvania. There he encounters the otherworldly Count Orlok portrayed by the legendary Max Schreck, in a performance the very backstory of which has spawned its own mythology who soon after embarks upon a cross-continental voyage to take up residence in a distant new land and establish his ambiguous dominion. As to whether the counts campaign against the plague-wracked populace erupts from satanic decree, erotic compulsion, or the simple impulse of survival that remains, perhaps, the greatest mystery of all in this film that's like a blackout...
