Nosferatu x Radiohead: A Silents Synced Film

Nosferatu the vampire appears to be standing on a ship.

F.W. Murnau's Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (1922), the original (and an unauthorized) film adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, inspired an entire genre with its blood-thirsty, undead protagonist.

The mysterious Count Orlok summons estate agent Thomas Hutter to his remote Transylvanian castle in the mountains, seeking to buy a house near Hutter and his young wife, Ellen. After Orlok reveals his vampire nature, Hutter struggles to escape the castle, knowing that Ellen is in grave danger. Meanwhile Orlok's servant, Knock, prepares for his master to arrive at his new home.
