F. W. Murnau is struggling to create his silent classic ``Nosferatu'' on location in Eastern Europe. The director is obsessed with making this the most authentic vampire movie ever. To that end, Murnau has employed a real vampire, Max Schreck, explaining to the crew that he is the ultimate of that new breed, the ``method actor'' -- trained by Stanislavsky himself. Schreck will appear only in character and only at night.
