Garza Timothy Howard Richard Marriott Richard OMeara Hans Posegga Peter Schirmann Bernd Wilden Official Website: Visit WebsitePlot Outline: Vampire Count Orlok expresses interest in a new residence and real estate agent Hutters wife. Silent classic based on the story "Dracula."
Plot: An unauthorized production of Bram Stokers work (The legal heirs didnt give their permission), so the names had to be changed. But this wasnt enough: The widow of Bram Stoker won two lawsuits (1924 and 1929) in which she demanded the destruction of all copies of the movie, however happily copies of it were already too widespread to destroy them all. Later, the Universal studios could break her resistance against this movie. Count Orloks move to Wisburg (Obviously the real "Wismar") brings the plague traceable to his dealings with the Realtor Thomas Hutter, and the Counts obsession with Hutters wife, Ellen the only one with the power to end the evil.
Crazy Credits: We know about 2 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
Jane Campion thanks her family, Colin, Alice and Richard, for their generous support, suggestions and encouragement during the making of this film.
Goofs: We know about 4 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Miscellaneous: When Hutter sits down on the bed at the inn to read the book about Nosferatu the Vampire, a piece of paper can be seen appearing and then disappearing in the lower left corner of the screen.
Trivia: There are 14 entries in the trivia list - like these:
- Count Orlok is only seen blinking one time on screen (near the end of part 1).
- Max Schreck is seen on screen, even before his character Graf Orlok is presented to the audience. He appears briefly opposite Hutter at the desk at the office of Knock, looking up from writing when Knock calls on Hutter to give him the assignment of going to see the count.
- Filmed between August and October 1921.
