I had some pretty frightful dreams, but they were only dreams.

I just finished watching Nosferatu, the original Dracula movie made as part of a German silent film series in 1922. I feel like anything having to do with vampires/the living dead has become overly trendy in film nowadays, so it was good to see a throwback. I would have to say my favorite thing about it from an aesthetic standpoint was Nosferatu's makeup. So intense and terrifying! Otherwise, I really loved the organ music. I don't think I would have appreciated the music nearly as much if there had been dialogue. With all of the special effects that Hollywood is capable of now, it's refreshing to see a movie that can stand on its own with all of the unnecessary aspects subtracted.
