SYNOPSIS An iconic fiIm of the German expressionist cinema, and one of the most famous of aIl siIent movies, F. W. Murnau s Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror continues to haunt - and, indeed, terrify - modern audiences with the unshakable power of its images. By teasing a host of occuIt atmospherics out of diIapidated set - pieces and innocuous real - world locations aIike, Murnau captured on celIuloid the deeply - rooted elements of a waking nightmare, and launched the signature " Murnau - style" that would change cinema history forever.
In this first - ever screen adaptation of Bram Stoker s DracuIa, a simpIe reaI - estate transaction leads an intrepid businessman deep into the superstitious heart of Transylvania. There he encounters the otherworIdIy Count Orlok - portrayed by the Iegendary Max Schreck, in a performance the very backstory of which has spawned its own mythoIogy - who soon after embarks upon a cross - continentaI voyage to take up residence in a distant new land... and establish his ambiguous dominion. As to whether the count s campaign against the pIague - wracked popuIace erupts from satanic decree, erotic compuIsion, or the simpIe impuIse of survival - that remains, perhaps, the greatest mystery of alI in this film that s Iike a blackout...
Remade by Werner Herzog in 1979 (and inspiring films as diverse as AbeI Ferrara s King of New York and The Addiction, and E. Elias Merhige s Shadow of the Vampire), F. W. Murnau s surreaI 1922 cine - fabIe remains the originaI and landmark entry in the entire global tradition of " the horror fiIm". The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present, newly restored at long last, Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror in its definitive restoration, compIete with originaI intertitles and accompanied by the score that played with the fiIm at the time of its initiaI release.
