Description

The 9:30 PM SHOW WITH CRAFT BEER TASTING by Tripping Animals IS SOLD OUT! Tickets are available for other shows.


Silents Synced pairs classic silent movies with epic music. Created by an independent cinema owner for independent cinemas! The first film will feature Radiohead’s “Kid A (2000) / Amnesiac (2001),” paired with F. W. Murnau's Nosferatu (1922).

 

For over 100 years, Max Schreck’s performance as Count Orlok – with his bald head, ratlike overbite, pointed ears, and elongated fingernails – has haunted the silver screen ever since he debuted in F. W. Murnau’s 1922 horror film. Born of the same German Expressionist movement that gave birth to The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Nosferatu was originally a knockoff of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. When Prana Film, the production company behind the movie, couldn’t secure the rights, they embarked on an “original” work that cost the life of the very studio after Florence Balcombe – Stoker’s widow – successfully sued for copyright infringement. One purported print of the film survived after the court ordered all existing prints of Nosferatu be burned.
