Chiswick Film Society continues to go from strength-to-strength running the only Movie Theatre in the UK showing only silent film with live accompaniment*.This month brings a Halloween special horror double bill to the Headliners venue of the the George IV, 185 Chiswick High Road, W4 2DR.
The programme will begin at 7PM on Sunday October 31st with Murnau's 1927 classic - NOSFERATU**. Followed by a surprise silent horror double feature. Halloween attire welcome.
Nosferatu is a masterpiece of Expressionist filmmaking.The earliest surviving screen adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula novel has had a long and dangerous life of its own. Almost destroyed by Stoker's widow because of copyright infringement, this film has outlasted many others of the silent era. There are many new releases of Nosferatu and all this goes to show that, "You can't keep a good vampire down."
