Nosferatu the Vampyre

About the movie

The classic tale of Count Dracula retold in a way that only Werner Herzog could do. In Wismar, Germany, Lucy and Jonathan Harker is a happily married couple. Jonathan, working as a real estate agent, is sent to Transylvania for a business meeting with Count Dracula, who has shown interest in a house in Wismar. Confident and eager to make the sale, Jonathan makes his way to Dracula despite the villagers’ advice to return home. When Jonathan shows Count Dracula a photograph of his wife, the Count promptly decides to buy – but is it for better or for worse?
Loved by critics both now and then, Nosferatu the Vampyre has been well praised for its horror elements as well for portraying the very tragic loneliness of the vampire’s being. Upon its release, it was nominated for the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival, and awarded with a Silver Bear at the same.
