The script girl? I'll eat her later.
A film about Murnau's Nosferatu, the masterful film adaptation of Dracula, which starred the extraordinary Max Schreck who actually believed himself to be a vampire. His curious behaviour was initially explained away, but eventually his designs on the leading lady became so sinister that Murnau realised he had to stalk his actor like the vampire he had become.
