Yes, creepy and awesome! The copy I have also includes a soundtrack by Type O Negative that is put to effective use utilizing tracks from their albums, "Slow Deep and Hard," "Bloody Kisses," and "October Rust." Some great editing to mix songs to the action on-screen.
The imagery Nosferatu conjures is the standard by which all other horror is judged and is the greatest vampire movie ever made. IMHO.

I bought Willard (Crispin Glover) last night - $5 @ Wally World! I think I'll watch that tonight.

so last night after my ESL class, I thought I'd check out "Dead Like Me" in the spirit of the times...it's finally available to us up here on Showcase TV
...well early days yet but it's not as funny as the promos would lead one to believe. Anyone else seen it?

^I've heard good things. It was hovering on the periphery of interest... but now, I just love me some Mandy Pitinkin! (Am I the only one who thinks a sequel to The Princess Bride could be a GOOD thing?)
Heck I even sat through Elmo in Grouchland just because he was the bad guy!

^ Well, Willard was tapped, but yesterday ended up being one of the worst days I've had in a while and I was forced to reconcile that reality is a lot more frightening than fictional horror.
I need me some Don Knotts. The Ghost and Mr. Chicken will make it all better....
"The awfulness and the horribleness of it will never actually be forgotten."
(Fun fact: Joan Staley, who played "Alma", was Playboy's Miss November 1958!)
sigh... I was born in the wrong decade.

No, no! Hear me out! Fred Savage is all growed up now, right? Well, HE could be telling HIS son the sequel to the story HE heard as a young boy from his grandfather, Peter Falk (the assumption being that Fred Savage's kid already KNOWS the original Princess Bride story.)
Cary Elwes is BEGGING for a profitable movie role, and we all know that Robin Wright (Penn) would like a little attention again, too. So, we advance their story, and bring back Mandy Pitinkin (a older, wiser, slower, fatter Inigo Montoya) for good measure. (Although, I would be willing to bet Mandy’s contract would demand at least 2 scenes of him singing. Prima dona.)
Tap Rob Reiner to direct, and throw in Billy Crystal and Carol Kane, and it’s a party!
I don’t remember if Christopher Guest’s character died in the original, but we could have him come back as a ghostly apparition, and we could have the Big Show (a pro wrestler) play the part of Andre the Giant’s character, Fezzik’s, son, or something.
I’m not familiar with the sequel “Buttercup’s Baby†so I don’t know if that’d be the story to adapt or not…

A minor hiccup the last few nights affected my viewing...
I'm back on it.
***
Tonight's was Andrew Lloyd Webber's "The Phantom of the Opera" (2004)
Not bad. Not really scary, but thoroughly enjoyable.

For those who've seen it, no explanation is necessary. For those who haven't...
(^The Monster's Bride voiced by Phyllis Diller)
(^A Peter Lorre-ish Igor and Dr. Frankenstein, voiced by Boris Karloff)
This animated film (It's "ANIMAGIC", BABY!) was by the same folks who brought all those classic "Animagic" Christmas holiday specials (Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Jack Frost, etc., and later the Lord of the Rings cartoons (w/ Ralph Bakshi), Thundercats, Tiger Sharks, et al.) and was a pre-cursor to Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas.
Plot summary, as per IMDB:
When Dr Frankenstein decides to retire from the monster-making business, he calls an international roster of monsters to a creepy convention to elect his successor. Everyone is there including Dracula, The Werewolf, The Creature, Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde and many more. But Frankenstein's title is not all that is at stake. The famous doctor has also discovered the secret of total destruction that must not fall into the wrong hands!
