Nosferatu
okay so. i think i just became a different person. i dont even know who i was before watching this. no words
THATS A LIE HERE ARE MY WORDS first of all the ending changed my life. so beautiful. that was lowkey spiritual. but already in the first quarter i was SAT. the setting was just so good so beautiful, genuinely so well done, truly honouring the genre. robert is such a lil nerd i luv him
as a whole it was so good dude. i watched the og nosferatu recently and this one was such a love letter to her. i noticed such gentle(?) and accurate parallels, but at the same time it didnt feel like a remake, more like a restoration? idk
i watched this with a friend who knows the dracula story pretty well so she also filled me in at times and knowing that theres even references to that... oh mama
also ☝️ yea i cried so? i felt shocked, sick, uneasy, not scared at all but just unsettled for damn sure
thomas is so cute
ellen mOTHER
orlok... i lowkey would, ellen i get it man. no further questions your honour
i did feel like willem dafoe’s character was written a little too conveniently if that makes sense, like he kept leaping to conclusions that turned out to be exactly right, which pulled me out of it a bit. i get that it serves the narrative and looking at the reference material it makes sense but it still felt lazy
what really made this movie was the atmosphere imo like the audio and cinematography? together? i felt like i was somewhere else man
also i love a good sex scene! so uh yeah the first one made me sick im ngl like i cried and uhhh yea that was torture kinda! 😀 so good ig it made ya girl have a visceral reaction, no words
HOWEVER the second one was SO beautiful. it made me feel safe? idk it just worked really well for me i genuinely loved it lowkey highkey
i love gothic imagery so so soooo much guys and this move slayed that for me so hard. everybodys so talented! this is a 'modernist' retelling well done fr yay
gothic horror is so back guys
