Negative Positive
Title: Great premise but runs out of steam.
Review: I had looked forward to seeing this movie for a long time and after I was finally able to watch it on video I was distinctly under-whelmed. While the original silent film "Nosferatu" is deservedly considered a classic, a movie about a classic doesn't guarantee great results. Willem Dafoe is in creepy fine form as Max Shreck, the actor who played the vampire in the original silent and John Malkovich turns in yet another fine performance. However, the strangely anti-climactic ending leaves one feeling let down.
Is the review positive or negative?
