Nosferatu
I am continuing my spree of classic film watching, after having seen it mentioned in so many other newer films and having seen small clips of it I thought I should watch Nosferatu, the classic German silent horror film.
Usually I am not one for modern horror, it's just mindless rubbish primarily, but I thought I would give one of the older horrors a go.
Great film, though you really have to bear in mind how old it really is 1922! It certainly feels old, and more like a play broken up into acts.
I tend to look at these older films more for their camera work, the unusual colours and grany film, just feels like a flicker book of almost victorian looking post cards, something you just won't see anymore.
I played my own music along with it, being as it is silent, and the music that accompanied my version was a bit on the questionable side. I went for a score of Mozart and Verdi.
In short I would recommend checking it out if you liked Metropolis for example, or just looking for something a bit unusual.
Here is a little snippet!
Ah well other than that all is the same with me here, though work is getting a bit like groundhog day these days, hopefully things will get better, I think I just need a holiday..
