To add to this strange style, the actors used an unrealistic technique that exhibited jerky and dancelike movements. This movie is cited as having introduced the concept of a twist to the end of a film, in cinema.    Nosferatu (Nothcott, Tue 20 Nov) is an early adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula,  features stunning visuals complete with a chilling performance from Max Schreck as Count Orlok. the film depicts Thomas Hutter's (Gustav von Wangenheim) journey to meet the mysterious Count Orlok (Max Schreck), who is intent on purchasing property in the city of Wisborg. However, Hutter soon discovers a dark secret the Count has concealed… Nosferatu brings the invention and aesthetics of German Expressionism to Stoker's classic character, creating the first memorable depiction of a vampire in cinematic history and a significant entry into the annals of the horror film.   The screenings have been kindly supported by the Bill Douglas Centre in Exeter. Tickets are available from Exeter Phoenix box office, 01392 667080 or Exeter Northcott, 01392 493493.
