Silent Film Showcase x Halloween on Screen: NOSFERATU (1922) w/ THE CAMERAMAN'S REVENGE (1912)Special Features: Live musical accompaniment by Silent Orchestra
NOSFERATU: A SYMPHONY OF HORROR
Casting a long and terrifying shadow over the genre, German silent-film master F. W. Murnau’s uncredited appropriation of Bram Stoker’s “Dracula” set the standard for all vampire flicks to come. Max Schreck’s monstrous Count Orlok is singularly frightening, repulsive and beastly, where Bela Lugosi was courtly and Christopher Lee seductive.
94 min. Silent with English intertitles. NOT RATED
Preceded by:
THE CAMERAMAN’S REVENGE
In this stop-motion animated short, Russian filmmaker Ladislas Starevich uses dead insects to tell the story of an adulterous beetle caught in flagrante delicto by a revenge-seeking grasshopper. 1912, b&w, 12 min. NOT RATED
