Nosferatu (1922)
Running time: 94 mins
Nosferatu {1922), Silent Horror Movie - Accompanied LIVE by Donald Mackenzie on the Paramount Compton Cinema Organ
One of the silent era's most influential masterpieces, Nosferatu's eerie, gothic feel -- and a chilling performance from Max Schreck as the vampire -- set the template for the horror films that followed.
The turning point in the career of legendary director F.W. Murnau ( Sunrise, The Last Laugh), the screen's first, albeit unauthorised adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, features Max Schreck's unforgettable performance as the vampire Count Orlok, the most chilling portrayal of cadaverous evil in film history.
Although a court order to destroy the film was successfully brought by the Bram Stoker estate, some copies escaped, and subsequently gave the 20th century some of its defining images of supernatural terror and dread.
