One Vampire two monsters. Great performances all 'round

If you wish to see great acting, a bit of the history of early film making and one of the scariest and yet comic pictures ever this one is for you.
John Malkovich and Willem Dafoe are both fantastic in their roles as director and "actor" in this fictional telling of the making of the classic horror film NOSFERATU. Malkovich as the director so obsessed with his "science" that ANY compromise is necessary. The lives of his actors and crew are irrelevent. BR>Dafoe's character slowly gaining power over the film, he recognizes that Malkovich is a greater monster that he will ever be. The final scence where what remains of the crew keeps filming is the ultimate commentary on the fascination that evil has over us.
It is an amazing movie. It is also a dark and disturbing movie. Like the MISSION I don't think I could watch it multiple times, but one viewing is enough. It is a picture that will stay with you for years


"The birth of the first difficult film star"

I wasn't sure what to make of "Shadow of the Vampire" after my first viewing. I bought it on a whim on Halloween night, to scare my girlfriend with a "Nosferatu" double-feature. When the World Series game ran long, we ended up watching neith
while. I didn't really care for Minnie Driver's voice for Jane Porter; it didn't fit somehow. And while the music in Trashin' the camp was differant from the rest of the soundtrack,it was refreshing and I thought it fit perfectly with the destruction of the camp.
BR> Phil Collins did a superb job with the music. I got goosebumps on several parts,he's that good. His singing voice just seems to fit with the wild jungle setting. All in all,a good movie.
