NOSFERATU: A SYMPHONY OF HORROR (1922) is the legendary silent vampire film that set the standard for horror cinema. Directed by F.W. Murnau and loosely based on Bram Stoker's Dracula, the story follows the eerie Count Orlok as he spreads death and dread in a seaside town. Featuring haunting visuals, stark shadows, and Max Schreck’s unforgettable performance, Nosferatu is the purest distillation of German Expressionism and one of the most influential horror films ever made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPOtj74BrL8

THE CABINET OF DR. CALIGARI is a 1920 German silent horror film, directed by Robert Wiene and written by Hans Janowitz and Carl Mayer. Considered the quintessential work of German Expressionist cinema, it tells the story of an insane hypnotist (Werner Krauss) who uses a somnambulist (Conrad Veidt) to commit murders.

The film features a dark and twisted visual style, with sharp-pointed forms, oblique and curving lines, structures and landscapes that lean and twist in unusual angles, and shadows and streaks of light painted directly onto the sets. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAtpxqajFak

NASH THE SLASH composed the musical scores for these and several other classic silent films and would perform them live at each screening. He was a legendary Canadian multi-instrumentalist adept at electric violin and mandolin. Nash was also the first Canadian to ever use a drum machine on an album, while his music was a complex blend of prog, art rock, new wave and performance art.

His persona was inspired by a killer butler that featured in the 1927 silent film ‘Do Detectives Think?’ starring Laurel and Hardy. He started performing as a solo artist beginning in 1975 and founded the progressive rock band FM in 1976. His trademark look was covered in surgical bandages.
