(Welcome to Year of the Vampire, a series examining the greatest, strangest, and sometimes overlooked vampire movies of all time in honor of "Nosferatu," which turns 100 this year.)

Civilization is a tenuous notion in "Nosferatu the Vampyre," Werner Herzog's 1979 remake of the original "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror." The movie begins with footage of mummies in a cave, their faces frozen in ghastly, Edward Munch-like expressions. The camera pans down and we see that some of them are wearing shoes and fashionable heels, an image at odds with their half-decayed state and the spooky, ethereal choral chanting of Popol Vuh's "Brüder des Schattens" ("Brothers of the Shadow").

Pola Kinski, daughter of long-dead German leading man Klaus Kinski, who rose to prominence with such Werner Herzog titles as Nosferatu the Vampyre and Aguirre: The Wrath of God, reveals in her new memoir that her father molested her from the age of 5 until she was 19. "When I said 'I don't want to,' he didn't care," she recently told German newsweekly Stern. "He simply took what he wanted." She added that she wrote the book mostly because she got sick of hearing Germans and members of the film community refer to Kinski as a genius. "I couldn't listen to it anymore," she explained. Fair enough.

Nastassja Kinski is speaking out in support of her half-sister, Pola Kinski, who recently claimed she was sexually abused by their late father, German actor Klaus Kinski. "My sister is a heroine, because she has freed her heart, her soul and also her future from the weight of the secret," the actress told German newspaper Bild, BBC News reports. In her new memoir, Kindermund (Children's Mouths), Pola details how her dad raped her multiple times during a 14-year period. While promoting the book, she recalled that when her mother took up with another man and her parents divorced in 1955, she moved in with her father and traveled with him all over Europe as he worked on his films, which is when the abuse...

It's been two decades since his death, but Klaus Kinski's secrets aren't staying buried. The German actor, who died of a heart attack at age 65 in 1991, sexually abused his daughter for 14 years beginning at age 5, Pola Kinski alleges in an interview with Germany's Stern magazine. She goes into further detail in her autobiography, Kindermund (From the Mouths of Children). Pola, now 60, says her father paid her "to be his little sex object, placed on silk cushions. I kept quiet for years because he [...]...

In an interview, Pola Kinski said her father, best known as the lead actor in films by the director Werner Herzog, repeatedly raped her over a 14-year period.

Twenty years after his death the self-taught actor who became something of a German legend, is unable to answer the claims. But his daughter said that having spent years living in fear that...

Klaus Kinski was known for throwing temper tantrums on film sets and even getting into violent altercations. Such behavior only helped grow the German screen star's legend since his death from a heart attack in 1991 at age 65. Now 21 years later, his daughter, Pola Kinski, is shedding new light on Kinski's dark side with a memoir in which she details how the tempestuous actor raped her multiple times during a 14-year period. Per The Hollywood Reporter, Pola—an actress in her own right and Kinski's oldest child from his first marriage to singer Gislinde Kuhlbeck (her half-sister is Paris, Texas star Nastassja Kinski)—dropped the bombshell allegations in an exclusive interview with the German...

Kinski also revealed that she spent her entire childhood living in fear of her father's abuse, and said she was never able to see him as the iconic actor the rest of the world knew him as, reports SpeigelOnline.

"When I would watch him in films, I always felt he was just like he was at home,...
