Screening of the silent horror classic 'Nosferatu' (1922), hosted by Mark Poole at Barnaby's Lounge.
Barnaby's Lounge is screening Nosferatu on Monday 14 December, with Mark Poole hosting. It's the 1922 silent horror film, the one that basically built the vampire genre and remains one of the most influential works of Gothic cinema. If you've only ever seen the modern versions, this is the one that started it all.
It's F.W. Murnau's landmark piece, known for its striking expressionist imagery and an eerie atmosphere that still holds up over a century later. The portrayal of the vampire is the thing that sticks with you — that gaunt, spindly figure that's become the blueprint for the creature in a hundred films since. It's a silent, so you'll be watching the story unfold through the images and the acting rather than the dialogue, which is where the Gothic mood really does its work.

This is the third Film Night Mark Poole has hosted at Barnaby's Lounge, so it's part of a series rather than a one-off. The screening runs from 7.00pm to 9.30pm, and tickets are £6. Because it's a lounge setting, booking a table in advance is recommended if you want to be sure of your spot. You'll find Barnaby's Lounge at 46 Robertson Street, Hastings, East Sussex TN34 1NJ.
