Kinski—Phantom Der Nacht


Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979)

Kinski—Phantom Der Nacht

“Young man—you’re like
the villagers who cannot
place themselves in the
soul of the hunter”
—Klaus Kinski

Bruno Ganz—very goodlooking
Even tho Keanu Reeves
Portrays a more vulnerable
Jonathan Harker at the mercy
Of Dracula’s daughters in bed
In Francis Coppola’s Bram
Stroker’s Dracula (1992)

What a real estate agent—
Had to put up with these
These days—Balkan skullduggery
Troublesome transgressive
Transylvanian transformations,
Thanks to F.W. Murnau and
Werner Herzog’s vampires
