Task 3

Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979)



In the past, most vampire films were based on the novel Dracula. In modern film, more and more changes have been made to the traditional vampire legend until in many films the vampires no longer play by the old rules. In the filmTwilight the vampires break from traditional lore in almost every way possible. Though a romantic movie, these vampires do not play by any of the traditional Dracula-type movie rules. They come out in the daytime, don’t sleep in coffins, have reflections in mirrors, and don’t drink human blood. In the past few decades vampire movies have become more creative, but they have also lost part of the tradition that made them unique.
