What is the name of the movie from (I think) the 90's, where they spoofed the making of NOSFERATU?

I don't remember who was in it, but the "actor" they hired to play the character Olaf turned out to actually be a vampire. It was a really funny dark comedy.

    "Shadow of The Vampire" didn't get a lot of buzz although for anyone who's seen,"Nosferatu" it's hysterically dark and funny, even if you haven't seen the film it's based on, you might like it anyway. Seems that the actor(who in this case is named Olaf instead of Max Shreck)really is a vampire as the director,WF Marnau finds out. But he doesn't care. In fact,he thinks it's great(if only he could keep Olaf from drinking the blood of the other actors.

    Shadow of the Vampire. (2000)

    It was not a comedy. The studio has it listed as a Drama / Horror.

    Shadow of the Vampire. My favourite line:

    Max Shreck/Count Orlock: (thoughtfully) I don't think we need a script girl anymore.
