Oddly, it works. See what happens when you spend a week with your parents? I went from the Roast of Larry the Cable Guy to this. Oddly, it works.

As was Cary Elwes as the smartass editor- in his first scene, he shoots a pistol into the air to get everybody's attention- I wonder how many real-life editors have wanted to do that?

"Nosferatu" is definitely a reason for me to stay up tonight - with the lights off, of couse. (It's also nice that I have nothing pressing Monday morning and can sleep in! :-)) I love the TCM silents – last week they had Harold Lloyd. “Nosferatu” is definitely a reason for me to stay up tonight – with the lights off, of couse.

Its like way out of context right now it being Lent and all but what an awesomely creepy film. Yes Max Shreck most frightening of the Counts. He looked like what Stoker envisoned a Vampire would look like, a bloated dead corpse. You can imagine his breath and the empty rotting eye sockets and the creepy ever growing finger nails. EWWWW. I also LOVED Shadow of the Vampire. Willem Defoe is an amazing, underated actor. And there was no sign of Keanu Reevesing anything. Good stuff. I LOVE this movie.

I think I'll bump it up to the top. Walken's character in Batman Returns was named Max Shreck. In one scene inside his office, as he walks up the stairs, the walls resemble the lining in a coffin and looks as if he's emerging from one. I’ve got Murnau’s “Faust” in my netflix queue.
