I haven’t but I fail to see why a 100 year old film is relevant to current films? My comment only works because they went with a remake of a monster movie. I specifically found it to be refreshing because it was a new movie falling back to that older formula.
It’s relevant because the new film is a remake of that 100 year old film, that’s why I mentioned it and noted that there’s not much that’s innovative about it.
Nosferatu is a 2024 American Gothic horror film written and directed by Robert Eggers. It is a remake of the film Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (1922), itself an unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula (1897).
I know the origin. My point is that doing something monstrous with vampires instead of making them some misunderstood character or a hot anti-hero is REFRESHING AND DIFFERENT. You don’t need to innovate to do either of those things. In fact I think it’s even more impressive that they chose to remake a silent film and do it as well as they did. Bill Skarsgard was creepy AF.
Huh, I felt the opposite. It felt refreshing to see this truly undead vampire instead of some sort of “human in every way but drinks blood” vampire
Did you ever watch the original Nosferatu? The vampire in that was pretty monstrous looking too, not in the vein of Twilight etc.
