An amazing photo of Max Schreck taking a break on the set of
Nosferatu (thanks Sarah!). Not so sure I even believe this photo: I've never encountered it anyplace in 35 some-odd years of horror research, but that's no indication of anything. There's just something about it that seems "photoshoppy", but then again, I'm probably wrong and it's as amazing (and rare) as it appears!
As we wind down, we have a lecture on Mr. Tod Browning, Bela Lugosi and the film
Dracula; a "talkie" that is a natural extension of the silent horror film. Then, Friday the 6th, we cover Carl Dryer's
Vampyr, and talk about the final test which is rolling around on Friday the 13th!
You can't have a luckier day to take a test in a horror cinema class!
