Film.com's FREE movie of the week is "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror." This 1922 classic of cinema based on Bram Stoker's "Dracula" (but with names changed) directed by F.W. Murnau and starring Max Schrek in one of films most famous and frightening make-up jobs.
A psychological odyssey set in New York, which centers on an emotionally tortured woman, who, numbered by the cynicism of contemporary society and her incapacity to express herself authentically, transforms into a God-like entity with a ravenous desire for control. Once freed of the limits she thought insurmountable, her metamorphosis is complete; she is the master of her universe, practicing near complete sleep deprivation, subjecting others to her carnal desires, and entertaining fascistic thoughts.
