Movies like The Name of the Rose

Martin Scorsese's controversial adaptation of Nikos Kazantzakis' novel explores the life and struggles of Jesus Christ. Much as The Name of the Rose contemplates complexities of faith, this film provides a profound look at the intersection of the divine and the human.

Blending historical fiction with horror, this film explores the making of the classic vampire movie Nosferatu. Admirers of The Name of the Rose will find Shadow of the Vampire’s blend of true history with dark, fictional storytelling a tantalizing mix.
