A masterpiece of expressionism and terror
“Having loved Faust(1926) I realised I had never seen Nosferatu(1922), which was apparently even better. I could really kick myself, for Nosferatu is every bit as good as everybody says. As much as I did love Faust, I love Nosferatu even more. It plays loosely with the Dracula story but is just as effective. The film is atmospheric, and the scary scenes still pack a powerful punch, the finale with Orlock's shadow outside his victim's door is terrifying. The expressionistic images do look really beautiful, but not overly so to undermine the scares or the atmosphere. The restored version's music score is suitably haunting, and FW Murnau's direction is superb. But if anything is to be remembered long after Nosferatu is over, other than the ending, it is the performance of Max Schreck. He is me” read more

"I guess it was good in his time. I find it really dull. And kinda shit."
