If Nosferatu hit the spot, these will too
Looking for the series itself? Also in this series: Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979)

F. W. Murnau directing both, with the same fingerprints on each
The difference: None of the melancholy Nosferatu is built on

Both are working the same pair: transylvania, vampire
The difference: Not nearly as dreamlike as Nosferatu

The same two preoccupations: castle, and black and white
The difference: Sits closer to mystery than Nosferatu does

The same hand behind both of them: F. W. Murnau

Two things both keep coming back to: grief and supernatural
The difference: 51 years apart, and the 1970s show

The same mix in both: dread, then unease

Both keep coming back to the same thing: grief

Dreamlike horror in both cases


Both are built on the same subject: black and white

Fantasy with a pulse of dread, in both cases

Both lean on melancholy more than on horror
In the mood for more dread?
