Matthew Sorrento's "Becoming Nosferatu":
“We all have fond memories of movie screenings that ignited our interests and shaped our tastes. With so much in cinema history to celebrate, there's something about German Expressionist films that connects to our dreams and nightmares. Written by specialists in horror, science fiction/fantasy and noir, this book's stories and poems indicate a love of silent German horror films and the creativity they kindle. In addition to F.W. Murnau's classic vampire film, the text salutes a variety of works in the Nosferatu tradition.”
