Editor's Note
F.W. Murnau's German silent classic is the original--and some say most frightening--DRACULA adaptation, taking Bram Stoker's novel and turning it into a haunting, shadowy dream full of dread. Names had to be changed from the novel when Stoker's wife charged his novel was being filmed without proper permission. Running times vary depending upon versions of the film. Count Orlok, the rodentlike vampire frighteningly portrayed by Max Schreck, is perhaps the most animalistic screen portrayal of a vampire ever filmed. The design was copied by Werner Herzog in his 1979 remake and by Tobe Hooper for his telefilm of Stephen King's SALEM'S LOT that same year. NOSFERATU is an eerie, menacing film that should not be missed.
| Features | This DVDTee includes both a DVD of F.W. Murnau's 1922 masterpiece, Nosferatu, and a tee shirt with the original poster art on it. Nosferatu was an unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, and opens in Breman, Germany by introducing us to real estate agent Thomas Hutter and his young wife, Ellen. Hutter is about to embark on a journey to the Carpathian Mountains to sell a house to the mysterious Count Orlock. Superstitious natives warn Hutter not to travel to the Count's castle, but greed overcomes him. Once there, Hutter discovers Orlock's true nature -- that he is a creature of the night who drinks blood and sleeps in a coffin -- and almost does not survive the ordeal. The Count, however, loses interest in Hutter once he sees a picture of his wife, Ellen, and travels to Germany to put her under his spell. |
