Willem Dafoe Shadow of the Vampire
The Big Picture The long-awaited, much-anticipated remake of the 1922 classic Nosferatu is coming to our screens on Christmas Day. A holiday gift just for us from the director and most obvious choice for this concept, Robert Eggers, who has already given us The Witch and The Lighthouse. A loose retelling of Dracula by Bram Stoker, though for legal reasons, not an adaptation, is the story of a monstrous vampire and his torment of an unfortunate woman.
Shadow of the Vampire RDramaHorror Director F.W. Murnau is determined to create the most authentic vampire film ever made, "Nosferatu." To achieve this, he hires the enigmatic and eerie Max Schreck to play the lead role, Count Orlok. Schreck's performance is disturbingly realistic, leading the cast and crew to suspect that he might be a real vampire. As production progresses, Murnau's obsession with his film leads to increasingly dangerous and bizarre events on set.

Willem Dafoe's Count Orlok Combines Comedy With Tragedy Close It's uncommon for a vampire so far removed from his humanity to be the sympathetic star of a film, rather than a villain or an obstacle closer to a zombie. From his bald head, pointed ears, and set of jagged teeth, to his general stature — this is not the suave kind of vampire aristocrat by a long shot. However, it's implied that he was, a very long time ago.
