Nosferatu the Vampyre (German title: Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht) is the 1979 remake of the 1922 horror classic Nosferatu. Unlike the earlier film, this was made after Bram Stoker's Dracula had entered the public domain, thereby allowing for the use of the original character names from the novel. Directed by Werner Herzog, the film stars Klaus Kinski as Count Dracula, Isabelle Adjani as Lucy Harker, and Bruno Ganz as Jonathan Harker.During the 19th century in Wismar, Germany, estate agent Jonathan Harker is instructed by his employer Renfield that one Count Dracula wishes to purchase some property in the city. Against the warnings of his wife Lucy, Jonathan travels to Dracula's castle in Transylvania to complete the transaction. Upon meeting the grotesque count, Jonathan begins to suspect that Dracula might actually be a blood-sucking vampire. His revelation comes too late, however, as Dracula stows himself away on a ship to transport himself to Wismar and infests the city with a horde of plague-carrying rats. Lucy soon learns of the source of the plague and plans to put an end to the undead Count.The film takes many cues from the 1922 original, following the basic beats of the plot and similar iconography. However, there were many additions made to expand upon both the story and the characters, including a more tragic depiction of the eponymous vampire. At the urging of the film's U.S. distributor 20th Century Fox, Herzog shot two different versions of the film: one in German and the other in English. | |

Swarm of Rats | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_18729bf8 | comment |
Swarm of Rats: Dracula can transform himself into one, and does so to avoid detection by the ship's captain who is loading up the coffins. He does so again to get off the ship. Apparently becoming a swarm of rats also allows him to move about in the daylight. He also commands the rats and Renfield actually calls him "the lord of the rats". Near the end of the film the rats have gotten completely out of control, nearly covering the town square. | |

Looks Like Orlok | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_1d5786ff | comment |
Looks Like Orlok: This being a remake of Nosferatu, Dracula is made up to, well, look like Orlok. He has the same bald head, pointy rat's teeth, sunken eyes, and Creepy Long Fingers. This, like the 1922 film, is a departure from the suave, handsome vampires that probably started with Bela Lugosi and make up so much of the rest of vampire fiction. The last scene confirms that Jonathan has turned full vampire, by showing him having the Orlok rat teeth and the creepy long fingernails as well. | |

Haunted Castle | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_25e18c14 | comment |
Haunted Castle: Dracula's castle is a supernaturally charged place that bends the laws of physics and messes with Jonathan's head (and Renfield's before him). It is inhabited by ghosts, and between scenes it actually changes physical appearance to that of ancient ruins. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Van Helsing stakes Dracula and ends up getting arrested for killing a foreign dignitary. Even if he knows Dracula was a vampire, to everyone else, it looks like he just murdered a innocent mannote This also happened at the beginning of Dracula's Daughter, the second movie in the original 1930s Universal Dracula series.. | |

They're aware he's evil, and Jonathan is warned sternly by some of the gypsies to avoid the Count and his property. | |

Cuddle Bug | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_c33a8cc4 | comment |
Cuddle Bug: Renfield adores Dracula, having been driven insane and manipulated by the Count into a minion of sorts. He timidly leans into Dracula's arm at one point, and is briskly shaken off like a dog does to a flea. | |

Missing Reflection: Dracula comes to Lucy one night while she's brushing her hair, and remains invisible in the mirror as he creeps up behind her. | |

Undead Child | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_c92cf19a | comment |
Undead Child: The boy seen and heard hanging around Dracula's castle playing a fiddle, quickly and mysteriously disappears. It is implied he is a ghost, and one of the Count's many victims taken from the local gypsy community. | |

Letting Her Hair Down | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_ccfc0535 | comment |
Letting Her Hair Down: Notably, Lucy letting down her long, lustrous hair seems to be the cue for Dracula to make his entrance into her bedroom. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: A jailer gets tricked by Renfield and is locked inside the jail cell with his own key, as Renfield runs off cackling hysterically. | |

Adaptation Name Change | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_dc057cf3 | comment |
Adaptation Name Change: In this version, Orlok is actually called Dracula. Oddly, Lucy and Mina trade names, with Lucy being Harker's beloved and Mina being her friend that is killed by the vampire. | |

Bloodlust | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_e03a0a7f | comment |
Blood Lust: This is naturally a big part of the plot. The best example is when Harker accidentally cuts his finger while eating dinner with the Count, and Dracula struggles mightily (and fails) to contain himself even around a tiny, superficial wound. | |

Creepy Long Fingers | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_e6521611 | comment |
This being a remake of Nosferatu, Dracula is made up to, well, look like Orlok. He has the same bald head, pointy rat's teeth, sunken eyes, and Creepy Long Fingers. This, like the 1922 film, is a departure from the suave, handsome vampires that probably started with Bela Lugosi and make up so much of the rest of vampire fiction. | |

Who Wants to Live Forever? | |
| Nosferatu the Vampyre / int_ea39d156 | comment |
Who Wants to Live Forever?: A major theme. It's not so much that he's outliving his loved ones, it's that no one could ever love a monster like him. And living forever, eternally unloved, is almost unbearable. It's possibly the most tragic interpretation of the Dracula story ever. | |

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Van Helsing upon realizing Lucy was right, makes sure to finish off Dracula by staking him. This just leads to a now nearly turned vampire Jonathan having him arrested for murder. | |

Tortured Monster: Dracula is a sad, lonely creature tormented by his inability to grow old or feel loved. There's not a minute that goes by where his voice isn't dripping with the misery that comes with living a long, endless life. | |
