Description
Nosferatu (1922) is F.W. Murnau's landmark German Expressionist silent film and an unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula. A young real estate clerk named Hutter travels to Transylvania to sell property to the mysterious Count Orlok, whose arrival in the port city of Bremen brings plague and terror. Max Schreck's performance as the rat-like vampire, with taloned fingers and pointed ears, is one of the most iconic images in horror cinema. Alexander Granach also stars, and the film was designed by Albin Grau. This is a VHS release from GoodTimes Home Video in the Hollywood Movie Greats line, packaged in a cardboard slipcase sleeve with the Silent Classics banner noting it was recorded in SP mode. The film is presented in black and white with a running time of approximately 63 minutes.
