I know it is a fact of film making that, when you can’t think of a new idea, why not just re-use an old one? I know the latter part of the twentieth century has been fertile territory for recent features but how about going back a bit further? Like to 1922?
Who is Nosferatu?
Nosferatu is an archaic Romanian word for vampire and the vampire in question is called Count Orlok. He isn’t named Count Dracula because the original Nosferatu was an unauthorised, unofficial version of the 1897 Bram Stoker novel. The resemblance very nearly meant that Nosferatu was lost forever after a judge ordered all copies of the 1922 film to be destroyed. Thankfully some prints survived, or this film would never have been made.

What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Movie Watching Must Have!!
I go feral for this app. I love it so much and I wish everyone knew about it and used it. It is incredibly useful and I would be devastated if this app ever disappeared. Things I love: 1) the pee times! It’s so handy to know the best time to go and then read the synopsis of what’s happening while I’m gone. I never have to worry about missing the good bits! 2) knowing if there is a post-credits scene or not. This might be my fav feature because I would have missed out on some pretty critical scenes if it weren’t for RunPee. 3) the movie review and viewer rankings. This info has made me watch some movies that I normally wouldn’t and it’s nice seeing things outside of my usual scope. 4) that it’s a small family run business. I love shopping small and it really does feel like I’m part of the RunPee family! If you reach out to them, Dan will personally respond to you and he is so warm and helpful. GET THIS APP AND THEN SUBSCRIBE! It is absolutely worth it and you’ll be using it again and again!
