Sink your teeth into a Halloween-week classic on Thursday, October 30, 2025, 7 pm at the Crosstown Theater. F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu, the shadow-soaked masterpiece that helped define horror on screen, returns in a special presentation featuring a brand-new live score by General Labor.

The Memphis ensemble will perform an immersive, modern accompaniment that threads eerie minimalism, pulsing percussion, and textural electronics through Murnau’s iconic imagery, breathing new life into Count Orlok’s creeping silhouette and the film’s haunted coastal vistas. This is not a soundtrack you’ll find on streaming: it’s a one-night-only conversation between musicians and movie, unfolding in real time on the big screen.

Whether you’re discovering Nosferatu for the first time or revisiting it through fresh ears, this live score transforms a silent-era landmark into a visceral, present-tense experience, perfect for the season.

Join us as the Crosstown Arts Film Series bridges cinema history and contemporary sound, otherworldly, atmospheric, and absolutely in the spirit of Halloween.

B/W, silent with intertitles. Not rated. Approx. 90 min.
