    In a series of original Nosferatu viewing in the greater Boston area this fall, my husband played violin in a chamber orchestra using a reconstruction of the original live music score. It definitely made a difference.

    Why are people, who are watching a movie about a vampire, complaining about "weird sexual shit?" Sexuality is like a core feature of vampire mythos in pop culture for like the last 50+ years.

      They wouldn’t know anything about that. I suspect their knowledge of vampires and vampire lore is not informed by original legends and such. Probably Twilight and at best Blade.

    This well made video essay forgot to mention the movie "Shadow Of The Vampire"! It´s a fictional account of the making of Murnau´s 1922 Nosferatu with a great Willem Dafoe as a sad and tired real vampire who was cast by John Malkovich´s Murnau as Count Orlok. It’s a somewhat uneven but very interesting little movie which won Willem Dafoe an Oscar nomination.

  • @TeutonicKnight92

    I’m sure it was model off Orlock but it reminds of Elder Vampires in VtM where they can often forget to pretend to be human. They don’t blink, move naturally, fake breathing etc.

      I felt the same. Having never seen the original I went in virtually blind. I think I was disappointed by nosforatu’s sole ambition to get a woman and once he obtained the woman he was so eager it became his undoing. To put it bluntly, something so powerful, reduced to a simp left a bad taste in my mouth. Everything surrounding that was top tier though.

      Extended version confirmed by Eggers.....
      The extended cut of Nosferatu will be released on Blu-ray and will include scenes that were left out of the theatrical version for pacing and suspense. The extended cut could be close to three hours long.
      Release date:
      The Blu-ray is expected to be released in March or April.

    Is a shame that you didn't also not include Shadow of the Vampire, that is about the filming of Nosferatu, but with the twist that Orlok is a vampire pretending to human, that has the role of a vampire, from the "Russian School", the actress that plays Ellen for her many flaws sacrifice herself to kill the monster.

    @juhovalio5906 14 дней назад +2

    Might be far fetched, but I didn't see the new adaptation of Orlok as evil.
    He even said it himself: "I am an appetite. NOTHING MORE"
    I saw Orlok as a character whose only purpose was to suck the blood of Ellen. It was everything he wanted. Everything he needed. He was appetite. Lust.
    Every imagination of the character of a vampyre is somehow bland, because they're 'only' evil. They spread chaos, death and terror, and blood is just their nutrition. You don't need to search any further because they're just bad from their nature. 2024 Orlok is not like that. He is driven by lust, but is ready and willing to do awful things to fulfill his lust. It's an interesting concept in a time where immediate reward and hedonism thrive. Orlok represents lust. Need. A willingness to hurt and cause suffering to fullfill a lust.
    Why is Orlok like that?
    He isn't so far away from Ellen as a character.
    Remember:
    When young, Ellen made a deal with a devil, where she bound herself to him, for her own pleasure. She was alone and needed fulfillment. She made a sacrifice. She gave herself to Orlok for her own good, and when in marriage the pact was broken, Orlok needed a revenge.
    What if Orlok once was an alone count. Living in his castle in the need of love, making a deal with the devil. Gaining the ability to posess for his own pleasure, but losing the ability to die. Only to turn into "appetite: nothing more". A beast, who gains his lifeforce from his victims. Whose only purpose it is to fulfill his endless need of blood.
    Orlok sort of had the spiritual connection to Ellen (the pact.) while in his castle, but was unable to physically leave because he was contained by the pagan magic and the christian magic of the nuns and gypsies. Herr. Hutter was a way for Orlok to get out. He didn't suck the blood of Herr. Hutter. He sucked the blood of Ellen thru her fiance, and gained enough strenght to break free and fulfill the deal made by Ellen years before. This explains why it needed to be Hutter to go and make the property deal. He wasn't interested on a house. He needed Ellens blood for strenght after sleeping for centuries, and being awakened by Ellen in marriage.

    One thing I gotta get of my chest real quick:
    While I think this film strayed a bit too far from the point at times and I didn't appreciate any the wierd sexual shit at all, I have to wonder what people expect going into a Dracula adaptation. Because it seems to me like some of you just go watch a movie like this, expecting a fucking Blumhouse flick. Like, we can argue about wether or not this film effectively conveyed the dark, opressive atmosphere a drac adaptation should have. Or we could argue about it's merits as an adaptation of a beloved classic in general.
    But not giving a shit about any of that and just expecting a "scary movie" is wild.
    It's like some folks have never heard anything about this old-ass story.
    I'm not even arguing for this movie in particular, it just pisses me off how dumb some of the points I've see are

There is German/Austrian architecture from centuries ago that dehumanizes Jewish people, one you may have heard of is a church with a bunch of Jewish children drinking milk from a pig. Trust me, if anything it looks like Nosferatu's look may have been inspired BY hateful depictions, not the other way around.

    Yeah I did not like this new one by Egger. I found it to be too long and boring, it relied too heavy on bleak atmosphere, and dark colors. The dialogue was boring. Bill Skarsgard played Pennywise in the movie It and was good but this version of Orlock looked like a homeless Hungarian with an attitude, looked nothing like the original. Lilly Rose Depp spent most of the time thrashing around on the floor, on the bed, on the seashore & making noises like she was in a perpetual orgasm throughout the whole movie, that too was pointless and dragged on & on like what is this, film noir porn? I made it 3 quarters of the movie but found it unbearable to finish watching it and I'm a big horror movie buff but I felt like if I did finish watching, like some movies, I would have wasted 2 hours I would never get back. Just go watch the original or at least the 1970's remake but I did not like this one at all. The only good acting in this movie was from Willem Dafoe. Nothing to see here folks, Just another movie with a big budget and lack of true creativity to pay homage to the original or compliment it in any way, not enough to reinvent or breathe new life into the vampire legend any way.

    My brother... is it even worth doing an intro at 6.5 minutes in? Like at that point, you've already fully explained what the video will cover, js. Lmao

    The terrible accent that fluctuated during the reading hurt to listen to.

    I’m clearly in the minority here but I was not really a fan of this one. I’m really tired of the directors reliance on sex to shock or to seem like his films are more mature then they are, I also got tired of the overly long and at times VERY campy dialogue. I didn’t hate the movie, I love the canal shot and when Johnathan meets orlok for the first time but after the first 2/3 it falls apart for me. I would describe as a feel bad movie 😂 which for the tones and themes are appropriate but I’m just a little tired of his shtick at this point. This is the same formula from the lighthouse with different set pieces and monster with worse dialogue 🤷🏻‍♂️( establish characters, minor mental issues or dream, they realize it’s hopeless. Moment of calm before the storm and then all hell breaks lose) it’s just like the lighthouse and the witch. It’s the eggers formula that a little tiring
