Halloween Special - a classic - Nosferatu. I saw it at the cinema with live music. I understand the music was more jazzy then usual. To the modern horror movie watcher it isn't scary but it is interesting. Despite my difficulties in the past with black and white (let alone silent) films this held my interest. I finally saw all those famous images of it in context as well!
The original film was actually destroyed due to copyright issues - Nosferatu is Romanian for vampire and the film is a thinly disguised rip off of Dracula. This film is one of the more recent piercing together of remaining records in archives.
3/5
