Nosferatu (1922)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: F.W. Murnau
Starring: Georg H. Schnell, Greta Schroder, Gustav von Wangenheim, Max Schreck, Ruth Landshoff
Revealing mistake: When Count Orlok has loaded the crates onto the cart, he climbs into the last one and the lid "levitates" into place. This trick is achieved by stop-motion animation, but the cart horses do not hold their position and shatter the illusion - their heads unnaturally jerk about while the lid is in motion.
Hutter: I am plagued by mosquitoes. Two have just bitten me on the neck, quite close together, one on each side.
Trivia: Nosferatu was initially banned in Sweden because of its excessive horror. The ban was eventually lifted in 1972.
