“Nosferatu” is technically the first film adaptation of “Dracula,” though the main character’s name was changed to “Count Orlok” for legal reasons. It remains one of the greatest and most influential vampire movies ever made. If anything, the silent format and crude visuals only heighten its disturbing appeal. Max Schreck‘s Orlok is still quite possibly the most terrifying vampire villain ever committed to celluloid.
