'Nosferatu' in the 21st Century is a celebration and a critical
study of F. W. Murnau's seminal vampire film Nosferatu, eine
Symphonie des Grauens on the 100th anniversary of its release in
1922. The movie remains a dark mirror to the troubled world we live
in seeing it as striking and important in the 2020s as it was a
century ago. The unmistakable image of Count Orlok has traveled
from his dilapidated castle in old world Transylvania into the
futuristic depths of outerspace in Star Trek and beyond as the
all-consuming shadow of the vampire spreads ever wider throughout
contemporary popular culture. This innovative collection of essays,
with a foreword by renowned Dracula expert Gary D. Rhodes, brings
together experts in the field alongside creative artists to explore
the ongoing impact of Murnau's groundbreaking movie as it has been
adapted, reinterpreted, and recreated across multiple mediums from
theatre, performance and film, to gaming, music and even drag. As
such, 'Nosferatu' in the 21st Century is not only a timely and
essential book about Murnau's film but also illuminates the times
that produced it and the world it continues to influence.
