Say Amen, Somebody (A&E; Sunday at 6 a.m.) George T. Nierenberg’s infectious 1982 documentary on gospel singers suggests that for black Christians, religion can be a joy rather than a duty.
Nosferatu (KCET Sunday at 11:30 p.m.) The great, brooding F.W. Murnau’s 1922 silent version of “Dracula” is a masterpiece of German Expressionism starring Max Schreck, the creepiest and loneliest of all vampires.
Swimming to Cambodia (Bravo Monday at 5 and 10 p.m.) The combination of director Jonathan Demme and monologist Spalding Gray holding forth on life itself, and his experiences in Cambodia while filming “The Killing Fields,” make this 1987 film surprisingly compelling.
Hidden Agenda (Cinemax Wednesday at 5:05 a.m.) Set in Belfast in the early ‘80s, this taut, straightforward 1990 Ken Loach thriller is an indictment of the shoot-to-kill ruthlessness of the British police.
