Nosferatu the Vampyre update feed
"First viewing - April 1st I tried to watch this when I lived in Austin during one of my Horrorfests, but the disc wouldn't play. Thankfully Prime has it as of this month, and I had two days left to watch it before my subscription ended. So I jumped on it right after dinner.
