I just saw it and loved it. It`s twisted, it`s scary - and it`s SO funny. Willem Defoe aces as Orlock/Shreck.
Anyone else has seen it? Comments?
One of my many favorite lines: "Keep calm, Greta, you know what they say: 'Relax and the vampire will do the rest'"

LOL!

I was a bit more lukewarm than you guys, I found it not scary enough to be horror, not funny enough to be comedy but sitting uneasily between the two. Malkovitch was fairly restrained for once and Dafoe wonderful. My favourite scene was the one where Eddie Izzard's character meets Orlok for the first time, they stop filming and he goes "I was VERY good wasn't I?"

absolutely loved this film! my favorite scene was the "Max, german theater NEEDS you!" bonfire bit. i thought the uneasy balance between horror flick and comedy did the film justice. it leaves you not quite knowing how you should feel about it and it certainly makes the original nosferatu more fun to watch. sotv is a great 'companion' film for nosferatu, don't ya think, kegboy?
