    The first half of the movie felt almost like a dream. And a reoccurring nightmare

    I’m so glad they hid the Orlok design in the trailers and that I didn’t seek out any reviews. I went into Nosferatu as fresh as I possibly could and loved it. I was genuinely unnerved by every scene of Orlok. Perhaps not to the extent of audiences in 1922, but I think Eggers captured a similar magic by going back to Stoker’s novel as more of an inspiration, rather than trying to just recreate Nosferatu. He made a truly new Nosferatu experience, even if it shares many of the same elements.

    I just saw this in a brand new Dolby Cinema last night. All I can say is WOW!! 🤯 What a masterpiece! I was smiling ear to ear the entire time, goosebumps, and tears of joy. The video and audio were absolutely incredible. This was hands down the best movie experience of my life. Thank you Robert Eggers and Dolby Cinema. And thank y’all for doing such amazing movie reviews! 😊

      @@raidersofthelostpodcast_ “Nosferatu” (2024) CAST OF CHARACTERS.
      ***********************************************
      MAIN CHARACTERS
      ***********************************************
      1) Count Orlok (Bill Skarsgård) - Ba’alZebub (Titus in the Holy Bible, only of a sort people)
      THE MOON, serving her, by waning, reflecting light (not generating). Lesser light “ruling over darkness.”
      THIS ONE) Molech: who builds the tabernacle of wickedness. He is worthless for godly significance without Lucifer, but certainly draws the third to him.
      2) Ellen Hutter (Lily-Rose Depp) - Lucifer (Mary Magdalene, only of a sort people)
      FALLEN STAR, to the Earth, in that she manifest and took on Eve, but before the fall she revolves around the sun trying to get away from the only other thing like her that cannot give forth light.
      SHE TOO) Re’Phan: justifies him and over all, but must pollute the Echad. In heaven she fails at that task, but in the movie succeeds, so Lucifer would be pleased.
      3) Thomas Hutter (Nicholas Hoult) - Yahweh (Paul in writing of letters, and killing the elect, only of a sort people)
      SUN, the true and great star, for this Earth.
      THE TRIUNE) Elo’him: who allows Himself brought down in wisdom. Jesus redeems man. There is no redemption going on in this movie. Lucifer saves. What is this? Bar’e’shit, if not, GENESIS created ‘gods’ the heavens and the Earth. In the movie he is brought down as Lucifer succeeds at the task of defiling her husband.
      4) Professor Albin Eberhart Von Franz (Willem Dafoe) - Solomon or MAGI man ‘under the sun’ (Solomon broke all the commands of King David, thus cut off from Mary, the mother of Jesus, yet again, only of a sort people)
      MANKIND, looking up, as astrologers reaching unto magi.
      Stephen: he who announces. The Acts 7:43
      NOTE: William Dafoe is in two other good Vampire movies “The Hunger” and “Shadow of the Vampire.” I like the movie “John Carter,” which he is also in. Best movie (and character for multiple movies) he has ever been in is “Spider-Man: No Way Home.” Here, in “Nosferatu” (2024) he plays the wise man, trying to figure it out.
      thus ends the major characters...
      ***********************************************
      THE COMMON FOLK
      ***********************************************
      5) Anna Harding (Emma Corrin) - MUSLIMS in league with Satan, or Ba’alZebub, reaching for Lucifer.
      MONTHLY CYCLE: reaching for the YEARLY GOAL.
      6) Friedrich Harding (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) - CHRISTIANS in league with Yahweh.
      Hoping for the 2nd coming; looking for Spiritual significance with a family.
      7) Dr. Wilhelm Sievers (Ralph Ineson) - JEWS trying to solve the problem in the Middle East.
      Can this Islamic pollution be cured? Earthly goals only.
      8} Herr Knock (Simon McBurney) - FALLEN ANGELS (demonically possessed) loving darkness, for their deeds are evil
      3RD OF THE HEAVENS, drawn unto falling, by way of Count Orlok (THEIR GOD)

    I loved Nosferatu so much, I saw it on Christmas day and again two days later! Eggers really brought back the terrifying and evil Vampire which was such a relief to see when we have so many "good" vampires nowadays with redeeming qualities and romance stories. Vampires, historically have been pure evil. I have been seeing so many critiques of the film with people trying to make the film into some romance between Ellen and Orlok, which is totally not what Eggers is trying to say. Amazing cinematography, and performances all around, especially Bill and Lily-rose! Loved this episode you guys!

    @AK-re6ls 4 дні тому +7

    I love the movie and the idea of a movie where the vampire is related to the occult and demonology. This movie effectively delivered on this type of story. Nosferatu is a monster (in fact considered to be the undead plague carrier) and is primal in his motivation. He is death. His connection to Ellen and his motivation to seek her out is simply because of her psychic / paranormal abilities and this is what drew him to her. Finally, we have a vampire movie that doesn't follow the same old tropes. Vampires should not be sexy and monster movies should not be confused with romance.

    It’s funny that you mention the lens choices, specifically the 50 mm, because in a very recent interview with Jarin the DP, he said they didn’t go below a 27 mm and didn’t really go higher than 35mm, only occasionally dipping into the 40 mm range. The technical aspect of the cinematography has a lot of nuance that will take multiple viewings to fully appreciate.

    I enjoyed it but I think I’ll like more on a second viewing and at home with a crisper picture. The movie theater screen wasn’t great for this. I was surprised to hear CGI wasn’t used for Orloc. He looked entirely CGI to me on the big screen, as did a lot of other things. Reminded me of The Wolfman a bit with the pace and tone, which I liked. The acting in this as top tier and Depp was incredible.
    Question for you guys : the scene where he pops out of the coffin, was that CGI or special effects?

    Thomas should have stayed safe in the convent and sent a letter to Ellen saying that their marriage is over and that he wants to stay away from her because she only attracts evil spirits and evil beings.
    If Thomas decides to become a secret agent, he should buy a volume of the book Malleus Maleficarum by Heinrich Kramer to investigate Ellen and her connection to the Vampire. Setting up an Inquisition court.
    And in the end she would be burned for her pact with the orlok. As they did with witches.

    The cinematography, gothic production design, and some truly original shots are AMAZING and I wanted to love it... but the constant overacting and limited character work ultimately made it a baroque, melodramatic slog for me - although Depp's physical work was incredible, and Dafoe (as usual) was a breath of fresh air. Still think The Witch is Eggers best work. Just my two cents. Happy New Year!

The vampire itself lacked power and was revealed too soon in Mho. Not exactly too novel, Nosferatu or the series Salem’s Lot had the rotting rat like presence.
    More art than horror however thrilled that so many others love it. We wait so long for decent horror.

Clunky, archaic dialogue, risible over-acting, and 2+ hours of slow-burn exposition that could have been handled in 1 1/2 hours, to say nothing of a throw-away climax (was Nossy that stupid?) make this version a sad shadow of the original. But then again, uninspired remakes of classics are the sign of our times.
