Nosferatu the Vampyre

[roxbubbagum]

Should there be a remake of Nosferatu The Vampyre.

 

[Lainie]

Yes. Or maybe no.

Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979) is already a remake of Nosferatu the Vampyre (1921), which is one of the best films ever made.

I love the original. Watching now creeps me out. It's like watching a film from another dimension. Marvellous.

I think the only comparatively, entrancingly ethereal horror film I've seen is White Zombie from 1932 - ironically, a sound film, but delibarately done in silent-esque mannered, visually poetic style.

 

[pothead]

I disagree.

 

[' The Beast']

you could also try another German film - The Cabinet of Dr Caligari 1920

 

[somanyquestions]

There's another film that takes the whole Nosferatu story in a different, genius direction. The film is called Shadow of the Vampire and stars Willem Dafoe as Max Schreck. It's a fictional account about the filming of "Nosferatu".

Spoiler

In "Shadow of the Vampire", Max Schreck is actually a real vampire thus throwing the production into turmoil.

Thats already been done.....

It was called Shutter Island!
