W. Murnau, starring Max Schreck as the vampire Count Orlok. The film, shot in 1921 and released in 1922, was an unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker's "Dracula", with names and other details changed because the studio could not obtain the rights to the novel (for instance, "vampire" became "Nosferatu" and "Count Dracula" became "Count Orlok").

Directed by F. W. Murnau, produced by Enrico Dieckmann and Albin Grau, screenplay by Henrik Galeen, based on "Dracula" by Bram Stoker, starring Max Schreck, Gustav von Wangenheim, Greta Schröder, Alexander Granach, Ruth Landshoff and Wolfgang Heinz.

People who know who Nosferatu is:
- Film buffs
- People who've seen that one Spongebob episode
Sarah Barker you’re right 😂👌
Also Rick and Morty referenced him once. Coach Feratu.

And people who play Fire Emblem and got curious to know what the nosferatu spell was based off of, so they looked it up.
My Great-Grandmother saw this movie at her tiny hometown theatre in the 1920s. She took an aisle seat because my Grandma went too, in a baby stroller she kept next to her in the aisle. The 'air-conditioning' was large blocks of ice set in front of electric fans! The audience spoke the text aloud, together, for the benefit of anyone that couldn't read(many people were illiterate in those days). After the movie, it was several blocks to walk home alone in the dark since my Great-Grandpa worked that night, and Great-Grandma said she was terrified the whole way home, and jumped straight into bed with the baby and pulled the covers over her head! And she left the lights on too!
Good for her
Dave Wade Neat story!
Thank God for stories like these.
the fact that they would say the text out loud is so wholesome
I love this! My nan wasn’t born until 7 years after the film was made, and my great-nan probably didn’t go to see it, she liked people to think she was fancy
It's insane to think that there was only one copy of this at one point. Thank God it was kept safe by french film collector Henry Langlois.
I'm sure there are many presumed lost silent and sound films that are owned by private collectors and institutions such as the Library of Congress and the Museum of Modern Art who are selfishly gatekeeping them and refusing to share them publicly, allowing only certain priviledged individuals to view them.
One can only hope for other movies that are otherwise lost. Movies used to be on very volatile film, and that's why 20th Century Fox lost a bunch of their older films in 1937 in a gigantic storage building fire that also killed a 13 year old boy and injured his mother and brother. (The flames shot out the building sideways, in one spot as far as about 100 feet [or, longer than 5 Chevrolet Suburbans placed bumper to bumper with 1 inch between each car.])
But besides that, there was no cheap and convenient home movie format - no DVD, no VHS, nothing of the sort. Movie Preservation wasn't on everyone's mind from 1900 - 1950, but I'm also confused as to *why* the director of the 1938 film "Algiers" tried to destroy every copy of the original 1937 film ("Pepe Le Moco") that his film was based on. I guess I can see why, but it's one of those moments when you look at previous generations and think "Wait, what???"
He also hid it from the nazis.
I mean, in Stoker's Widow's defense, they asked her if they could adapt Dracula, she said no, so they made this film. And although I am truly glad a copy survived and we still have this iconic piece of film, I also fully appreciate why Mrs Stoker was *pissed*
It was a time when her only real opportunity for income at that time was through royalties on her late husband's work.
And I think a lot of kids may see this movie later in life, since Nosferatu is on SpongeBob now, so they may be seeing it to know who he is.
Interesting fact: Illiteracy was still rampant during the Silent-film era, so literate audience members would often read the dialogue cards out loud for the benefit of audience members who couldn't read.
Back when motion pictures were still so new that 'stage theater' & 'movie theater' were still caught in a blend. (for someone to read cards aloud during a film)
That's sad and sweet at the same time

These northerns! Any sane husband here would have misunderstood and sent him away in bad manners after such a speech 😆
Nosferatu is the embodiment of the uncanny valley and the classical vampire, he looks (barely) human-ish but you can never truly pinpoint what's actually wrong about him. His gestures, mannerism, speech pattern, he could threaten you in the face and you wouldn't realize until it's too late.
Totally. I personally prefer the Klaus Kinski Nosferatu over this one because of this one's antisemitic stereotypes. This one is better dressed though.
@@xerozoo only racist saw everything as racism
@@boboboy8189 Wow, you really took me down a peg. How embarrassing.
"Nosferatu" means "plague-bringer." Hence Orlok's rat-like appearance.
@@xerozoo The director for this film was Jewish, as were several members of the staff. I think they simply went with the characteristics on this one because they found them frightening.
You have helped create a landscape of Horror and Terror; influenced over 100 years.
You not only created the onscreen Vampire, you defined it, pioneered, and created a vision that still holds up to this very second of this day.
Happy Birthday Nosferatu, Long Live Count Orlock.
Yes
Long live the count! His visions inspire my dreams every night and day.

Well film professors do love assigning the oldest movies they can find
Here’s some interesting facts:
The 1922 Nosferatu film was based on the Bram Stoker’s 1897 Dracula novel, so to try to avoid copyright, they changed the name from Count Dracula to Count Orlok, and the title from Dracula to Nosferatu (another interesting fact about the word “Nosferatu” is that it’s kinda “lost in time”. While it’s uncertain, the origin of the word is believed to be of Romanian, and it was used in the Dracula novel as a synonym for “vampire”. Credit to Suki La Hood for the fact).
These copyright issues was also the reason why the film was originally never released in America and only in Germany. However, it did end up being a victim of copyright, and a court ruled all copies be destroyed! However, a few copies survived, and today, the movie “Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror”, is known as one of the best and most influential horror films of all time :D
And this movie is still legendary in 2023 :)
Actually they couldnt get the rights from bram strokers widow, so thats why hes called Orlok and so forth
@Elena Țăpean bullshit she deserves compensation for her Husbands work

!'^+%&/()=?_?=)(/&%+^'You are invited to our film company. We broadcast subtitles for our movies in most languages. It doesn't matter what language you know.
The word ‘Nosferatu’ is also in the Dracula book as well.
You know what's humorous is that when they made it, they never expected that anybody would be watching this movie 10 years later, in fact by 1932 everyone forgot this movie ever existed only for it to be rediscovered for the purpose of watching it by a new medium..... And now here we are 100 years later and watching it via completely different medium, without even owning the original reel.
You can have your Pennywise, Jason, Micheal or Chucky, but Nosferatu is seriously an eerie movie. Happy 100 years Count Orlok
We are living in a great age. because we can enjoy this masterpiece by free

Boss!
Masterpiece??? Looking back,that sucks! lol Only a movie snob can call it "A masterpiece"
@@nicolassosolic3760 Damn you must have never taken any sort of film or avant garde classes. Alot of what makes it great is the timing, the shot and composition, lighting, and the vampire makeup of the time. Like arguably and artistically this movie still holds up well. It still gives you great horror and sends chills up you spin with such simplicity.
You say only a snob calls it a masterpiece but only a uncreative normie says it sucks.
I’m here doing research for a video and I’m actually really surprised how elaborate the scenes, the acting and the music are. I bet seeing this movie in 1922 was a game changer
i m really upset about it we never understand and feel this movie like people who watched in 1922.. after we watch the shining, it follow ..etc our horror sense much more diffrent now
Rae!!!!
This would’ve scared a lot of people back then. It’s fascinating to see the drastic change in horror films. Would’ve made it spookier with no sound.
It was banned in a lot of places. Demons and all that. It was never released in america, only in germany and they got in trouble for copying the dracula novel but changing names, so all copies were to be destroyed... but some survived and here we are
It's really a masterpiece. After watching Nosferatu I became obsessed with horror classics. And eventually wrote a book about the history of the genre. This film is very inspiring!

This was from 1922:
- CGI was never real
- Social media was not real
- Movies had no dialogue
- A Spanish Flu was taking place
100 years later in 2022:
- we're still in the middle of a pandemic
- This is STILL a scary horror film
That makes no sense
@@diobrando6177 I'm just saying that 100 years ago, the world was so different compared to now
@@diobrando6177 "it's makes sense if you force into it"
No era "gripe española": está ya comprobado los primeros casos se dieron en Norteamérica.
- Prohibition had started in 1920 and ended in 1933.
- World War I had ended in 1918, and you would see War Veterans missing limbs.
- Automobiles weren't as common.
- *Refrigerators* didn't even exist in the consumer market until 1927, but even then, they cost over $7,000 in equivalent!
- Instead of Refrigerators, people used Ice Boxes. That's why you can see "Ice Delivery Wagons" in movies that take place before 1927, and even a bit after it (like that Three Stooges episode from the 1930s.)
- Early Refrigerators, in the event of leaking the gas they ran on, could kill people. Because of this, there were some people who *never* owned a fridge in all their life. Can you imagine? Someone would be born in 1910 or so, then still not own a fridge in 1980, just a few years before Ghostbusters came out in theaters!
the fact that it's so old makes it so much scarier.... Legit a lot scarier than any new horror film
L omg yes! this vampires face has always scared me since childhood and I love horror movies. but y r right, old is gold like they say
L it's actually quite a beautiful film. Most silents are too melodramatic to be scary to me, but the overall ambiance is spooky in a good way. Precisely because its old. I've seen 1920s films scarier than this. The Lodger is legit creepy, its another classic. One of the scariest things about Nosferatu is the emergence of the plague from his ancient Transylvanian rats. Willard 1971 is a creepy film on many levels about rats, if you like old horror movies.
Thalassa Fourtines i like The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari and The Phantom Of The Opera.
Also knowing that everyone who made and was in the film is dead, is even more scarier to me.

Samir Norris that’s not scary
@Samir Norris your a scrub. Thats not scary at all
I'd actually argue Klaus Kinski otdoes Max Shreck in the '79 remake of this movie. Klaus Kinski was in fact a verified diagnosed psychopath and that bleeds through in every scene he's in.
He's intense and utterly terrifying on a very disturbingly real level, when you're aware of his mental state of mind..
Nah dude you have to know that a spider is way scarier

I had an eighth grade teacher show this to us in class in 1979. Fell in love with it and was so glad to be able to find it and show my kids who like modern jump scare movies but were actually more frightened by this! Lol
This is a true horror classic. The acting and the music is amazing for 1922.
Max Schreck: the absolute best name for an actor in a horror movie, especially in playing a monster, because Schreck in German means "terror". That, just like the movie itself, highlights what a once-in-a-lifetime sort of thing this is.
Like Usain Bolt or Stevie Wonder
Terror means Terror in german.
“Wonder” isn’t his real last name, it’s a pseudonym. Doesn’t work as well since it’s not his real name

For a film made in 1922, this was incredible, they had continuity shots, location research, Extra's, the American cut was everywhere, they had a pan, they had 'magic' where Nosferatu put himself in a coffin and telekinetically raise the coffin cover to close his coffin really solid work for something made in 1922, and over an hour as well.
It's now 2022. 100 years sounds like a long time but when you get older you realise it's not. My parents were born less than 30 years after this film came out. Things change so fast but to think 100 years ago we were only just starting to see full length movies, and they were still silent.
I know somebody that was 3 years old when this movie came out. It's crazy to me that he's older than this film.
Not much commented on - but the way Count Orlok loads the carriage with coffins at 36:00 and then stop-motions his own coffin lid closed after climbing on top is just otherworldly creepy.
The Samsung s20 adverts must of really confused the original audience.

So when the screen is yellow, it is either daylight or inside. When it is blue, it is night. Pink/magenta it is sunrise or sunset. At least thats what i put together in my head. Idk if thats right but its something with the time of day
Cameras back then could not record during the night. There was simply not enough light to work with.
Misaka Mikoto they would set up lights around the set have you never seen the movie about this movie? If not i think it would be well worth your time
+Ty Calvert
That works in some circumstances, but it's not easy to light an entire forest at night without making it look strange. There are tradeoffs between what can be done and what's effective to do.
That'a what it means actually because we analyze this film in class and that's what my teacher said as well.
I figured the blue part as a clever way to show night since they couldn’t film at night. Nice thinking on the pink part.
even though this film is over 100 years old, it truly is a masterpiece and one of the greatest miracles people have ever made. It still sends chills down spines despite being an old movie with no special effects, scenes in which Nosferatu stands by the door or window are so incredibly made, that they are still terryfying. There are no special effects and the film is one of the greatest masterpieces. I've watched many movies and yet I'm still comiing back to the one and only Nosferatu. Many people don't know that this movie even exists and it is a missed opportunity to see old but great cinematography. Many films that are made nowadays are worst than Nosferatu - and it shows its genius and class
This is one of my favorite Kurt Russell movies 🎥 😊.

Graveyard Shift
The part at 34:45 actually scared the shit out of me when his face is peeking through the casket and the music gets distorted from being so loud.
It’s a very subtle scary. I only truly get scared of this movie when I’m left alone completely in the dark. Like taking trash out in the middle of the night. My driveway is super long and surrounded by long bony trees it’s easy to feel vulnerable. Then I remember the image of him standing in the doorway like 9 feet tall with his arms draped over his body. That’s what terrifies me. That’s what we need back in modern horror.
That part made me laugh so much
Curious Betsy vlogs-Yeah, that was quite creepy.
The one and only Bob Ross-The dudes reaction was funny af, was pissing mahself 🤣🤣
Lol
Damn I’d be scared too if the trees by my driveway had bones
Timeless, classic, priceless…and the scariest vampire portrayal ever. Love silent horror!
You know that when a movie from 100 years ago can scare the crap out of a society, that has seen all the horror movies from that point on, it's a masterpiece. Simply made, simple effects, probably low budget. It just seems more relevant than the actual Bram Stoker's version, called "Dracula".
This movie is almost 100 years old but it still gives me the creeps! That’s how eerily powerful this movie is! 😱
Your comment is old and gives me the creeps
Which only goes to prove good entertainment stands the test of time!
It's exactly 100 years today
Very creepy. I’m sure it really scared the hell out of people back when it first came out.
honestly i think the movie is funny
How can anyone complain about, a really well, put together story from the 1920s. This would have really scared a lot of people back then. As this was the very first time people had seen Dracula, other than an artistic rendition in books. As it was a first to, you can't compare this to any other movie that came after, plus this was done with (back then) cutting edge technology.
Captain RossPool the only complaints I have is I riff on Hutter just being a complete buffoon

@Sasuke Uchiha what was the name of that Dracula film?
FW Murnau was pure genius!!!!
It's wonderful that so many still enjoy the film on its 100th anniversary. I always think about the little cat in the beginning, first kitty immortalized on film playing with a toy. I don't know that, I just think it's so cute and ordinary in this memorable movie.
Without a doubt one of the most iconic vampire movies ever made considering that it was one of the first vampire movies. Add to the fact that it stars Max Schreck as Count Orlok makes this movie even more iconic and unforgettable.
I love the scene at 1:07:11 how it doesn't do a zoom in on Nosferatu so you can only see or even notice him if you look closely, or if you know where to look. I don't know why but it just makes it way creepier than if it just did a closeup on him looking out the window

I live in a small town USA. When I was in my teens, my gf's and I would walk to the show house and watch this. This was an old, old show house, and near the screen, a large beautiful organ; which was 3 layers of keys would rise from the floor. It would play the music to this movie, and turn off the movies original score. That was over 55 yrs. ago.

No one brought more visual terror to Horror or the Vampire film genre quite on the level that Max Schreck did. He legitimately looked like a monster/vampire to the point where you start questioning yourself if he really was one, which was mainly due to his method acting and him not breaking character throughout most of the production of Nosferatu which made it brilliant. If I was walking alone at night, I'd definitely wouldn't want to come across Count Orlok in a dark alley. Nosferatu is as dark and classy a film can get which is what a lot of films today simply lack. In my opinion, the more they tried to romanticize Vampires, the less scary and frightening they became.
Except for maybe Klaus Kinski?
@@Stigmatix666 Herzog's version is also Brilliant, Kinski plays the part very well.
I agree, I'm not interested in a romanticized vampire. I definitely prefer the Nosferatu-style versus the classic Dracula version.
@@GilbertSyndrome Extremely well

This is why I believe that Daniel Day-Lewis should come out of retirement to play one last role, as Count Orlok in like a prequel or some shit. Daniel would fucking knock it out of the park
Watching this for the first time on the 100th anniversary. What a good film.
One of my big rules when watching old horror is to try to imagine what it must have been like for people when it came out. I can defenitly see how this would be terrifying. Heck, I find it unsettling now.
50:51 that scene is awesome, the unnatural way he raises himself, very powerful and frightening.
Knowing everyone in this movie is long gone makes me really existential
It's oddly comforting to me, thinking that if I manage to do something as impactful or important like this, I will be remembered or at least acknowledged in what I leave behind
So nice to see the color tinting in this version--most people believe that this film was in strict black and white. Actually, the color was added to the film, to differentiate light and darkness (Day for night not being invented yet. And never perfected.) Almost impossible to find in any copy--the only one I ever found (and promptly bought) is the Kino Lorber cut.
What an astonishing movie. This year it has turned 100 years old. Beautiful and amazing.
"and the walls will ooze green slime!
No, wait. They always do that."
the resolution is actually quite good for such an old movie. I'm impressed it's not all grainy and blurry. thank you TCM for uploading this
I know this comment is a year old but here is an even better version. th-cam.com/video/e7p3ct5hcks/w-d-xo.html
That’s just film. Old technology but good. It’s when videotape started being used and the equipment was able to be cheaply made that picture quality took a dive.
My mother was born the year Nosferatu came out. Such a very long time ago now.
Can you imagine some young man taking his girlfriend to see this in a theatre? That is someone's history out there though....
So many horror films today don't measure up to this. This is truly terrifying. The music, the shadows and the fact at it was made 100 years ago makes it all the more scary.
1:16:09 Arguably, one of the creepiest shadow scenes in cinema history. I absolutely love this underated classic
I wouldn’t say it’s underrated. It has a legendary status.
Bro said underrated like this isn't a legendary film.
This film was almost wiped from existence..... thankfully some prints survived.... what we have gotten is a masterpiece!
Stroke it, Mrs. Stoker! The film you ordered destroyed is 100 years old, and the greatest of all!
After 100 years, still the most scaring movie you can see.
I can just imagine them projecting this on a white sheet in the 1930s and some dude sitting at an organ just playing for two hours straight
Connor Hoffman bro that would be so weird, i cant imagine someone sitting on a lung or a heart even
Senexe dude he means pipe organs, like an esophagus or something
You havent seen a silent movie live. Japan do it every year. They play their band for 2 hrs straight!
@@gracehinahon4137 I saw a Chaplin film at the Ojai music festival a while back, it was incredible to see the orchestra and especially the pianist work so hard!
@@HugoMakesMusic totally! What a great talent right?
I am a big fan of this movie, and while it isn’t exactly “scary” by 2018 when compared with other movies, I think this may take the cake as one of the eeriest movies ever made. The fact that it was made 4 years short of a HUNDRED YEARS AGO makes it all the better.
Now it is 100 years old. March 4, 2022
Surprisingly good movie. Though the ending is a bit abrupt.
But still one of the best movie adaptations of Bram Stoker's Dracula I've ever seen.
the whole part about the sailors and the strange ' plague' afflicted voyage with the rats and the ghostly Vampyre appearing in the ships hold really grabbed my imagination as a kid. I loved the whole idea of it and still do. I pretty much plagiarized that part for a creative writing short story project in the 3rd grade and got praised for imagination. The teacher was none the wiser.
No CGI no color heck not even any sound yet it has a cinematic atmosphere todays movie studios cannot replicate
even with bigger budgets and technology. Watching this is more akin to watching a documentary than a movie!
"Heck not even a sound."
Duh! It's a silent movie,except for the music.
Who else watching this during quarantine?
Mushroom Lillie, I am
I'm glad im not alone
I was looking for this comment lol
Over here, mate.
pas besoin d'être en quarantaine pour regarder des chef-d'oeuvres!!!!
Just watched this movie for the first time tonight in celebration of its (belated) 100th anniversary this year. Gotta say, I was really impressed by the visuals, especially the parts where Orlok faded into view or away as a means of warping. I didn't even know they were capable of doing those types of special effects 100 years ago. I'm glad I got to watch an all-time classic before the end of its 100th anniversary year. It's amazing to think what I just watched is literally a century old!
This movie touched on the concept of quarantine before it was cool
Actually, the idea of a quarantine goes back to the days of the black death from 1347-1351. One city mandated a 40 day waiting period for all incoming ships. That's the origin of it.
Incredible, every scene is framed like a painting.
Well yeah, this was literally the era where pictures turned into films. So they were still focused on every single shot having the same value as a painting.
It's awesome!
Welcome to quality Cinema.
I like how count Orlok isn't even taken down by the protagonist and he just dies because of his own dumbass planning skills, like he goes out to suck her blood like five minutes before the sun comes up
It is shown by the finger cut scene that he has a nigh uncontrollable lust for blood, which I assume is why the blood has to come from a "pure of heart woman" because that blood is the only one that causes him to ignore the time
Thanks for the spoilers numbnuts
@@partylizard8343 Yeah that makes so much more sense I didn't even think of that
The main actor in this movie was so creepy. He is a legend. Interesting fact that his last name translates to "terror" as well!
such a gorgeous film!! i swear some of the shots in this look like paintings
29:23
I love Count Orlock's revelation as a vampire. It's so chillingly menacing.
