This is a Chronicle of the great Death in Wishborg 1838
The original story is as old as the Carpathian Mountains. A real estate agent Knock (Alexander Granach) gets a mysterious request from a far-off land; Count Graf Orlok (Max Schreck) is in need of a new abode. He sends his best man Hutter (Gustav v. Wangenheim) to seal the deal. The mysterious being, Nosferatu, has nefarious purposes that will seal more than the deal and in the process is attracted to a tasty Mrs. Hutter (Greta Schroeder).
This is the 1922 F. W. Murnau's silent German classic adaption of Brahm Stoker's Dracula. The movie follows the book a little closer than today's movies do. There were a few necessary changes. I believe that was the nature of movies around 1922. Max Schreck did an excellent job of playing the deviant snacker.
Although no variations can come close to this original film, many people think of Werner Herzog's 1978 film "Nosferatu the Vampyre" as a good variation, This also being my personal favorite as I am a fan of Klaus Kinski. I suggest that you look at some of the others and see what you think and who you consider the real Dracula.
------------------------------------------
There are many great additions available including various artists that contribute their talents to the musical score. This review is of Del Rey & the Sun Kings. Del Rey & the Sun Kings lend their talents to several movies such as "Battleship Potemkin" (1925). It may be a matter of taste yet you can not afford to overlook or hear this version of "Nosferatu".
