The fact that I was never entirely sure exactly what was going on just added to the sense of unease hanging over this film. All in all an unsettling and worthwhile experience.

It's a sound film but is filmed like a silent: lots of characters reading books in order to impart the lore we need, along with fantastic, moody, dialogue-free scenes throughout. This is all atmosphere and not a lot of story, but the atmosphere is genuinely creepy in a way I was not expecting. Dreyer continues to impress me with fluid camerawork and a point of view in his mise en scene that is really gripping.

When an old man enters him room muttering about a woman's impending death and leaves him a book, our hero goes expl More

I'm been trying to add more awarded/famous movies to my nightly watching! I searched Google for famous Horror movies and "Vampyr" showed up on many of the lists. There is very little dialog and may almost be considered a silent movie. Mostly takes place in an old Danish inn. No spoilers here, bu More
