Mask on Nosferatu! (Momo's Review)

Review:

It may be original, but it sure can put someone to sleep! The thriller, Nosferatu, was the original vampire movie of all movies. Honestly, I expected more. For the graphics, I admit that it was great for being made in 1922.

Many rumors have came from this movie and I admit, it was a bit creepy. For example, the rumor on Max Schreck, the man who seems to be in a deep trance. Deep trance for BLOOD! This is what made the movie interesting. Watching the actor for Nosferatu (Max Schreck) frightened me more then anything. If I would have never heard that rumor, I would've give up on this movie. Mr. Schreck did a marvelous job, although I am a bit afraid to fall asleep. What if he wakes up at my bed stump?

Now this movie can get pretty romantic. It is about a male, Jonathan (Gustave V.W) whom is in love with Mina (Greta S.) Jonathan wanted to make more money, and the "half-man," his name is not noted, suggest him to allow the vampire to move into the house across from Jonathan. Being overwhelmed by how much money he would receive, Jonathan rushed to the vampire's house to accept the offer. During his nights in the land of Nosferatu, the man didn't realize that he was a midnight snack for this bloodlust vampire. After being bit, lots of weird things start to happen to the man, along with his lover.

If you would like to see how this conflict is resolved, tune into the movie! But, do not watch it when you are tired. You will fall asleep after the first 10 minutes. I know, I am being a bit harsh, but this movie didn't catch my attention. I'm afraid this movie must be masked! Hopefully, Nosferatu doesn't show up in my room at night, because I know I will definitely panic! Big thumbs up to Mr. Schreck for his amazing acting skills. A bit too amazing...
