Nosferatu

Nosferatu is by far the most accurate depiction of Bram Stoker's Dracula, even after all the Hollywood adaptations throughout the years. Max Schreck as Count Orlok is still among the creepiest characters in movie history and the silent film format adds to the overall disturbing nature of the film. The character of Jonathan Harker is a bit over the top, in classic silent film style, but as the story progresses you quickly get past that and enjoy the sheer horror of this classic tale of terror. If you're introducing someone to the Dracula legend this Halloween, F.W. Munarau's film is an excellent place to start. You can watch it online in its entirety or download a version to play on an iPod or PSP from Google Video. For the best viewing experience, you can find a remastered version on DVD.
