Nosferatu. December 25th.

Featured Replies

No, or at least very little, DEI makeover, no bringing the story up to date to make it relevant and resonate with a modern audience. PETA is upset at the negative portrayal of rats and bats.

" Director Robert Eggers’ new Nosferatu is a long-awaited adaptation of a much-told tale that typifies much of his trademark filmmaking. " -gamesradar

I predict a huge success.

This ought to be good.

I enjoyed the silent version of Nosferatu.  The filmmakers couldn't get permission to do the original story from the Bram Stoker estate, so they changed the names.

If you can find it anywhere, the modern Shadow of the Vampire is about the making of the silent film, but assuming the actor playing the vampire is a real vampire. 😄  

The new movie is apparently a remake of the Nosferatu movie.  There has been no word if any actors were actual vampires.

Someone is also doing Frankenstein, staying true to Shelly's original story.

Intelligence is knowing Doctor Frankenstein is not the monster.  Wisdom is knowing Doctor Frankenstein IS the monster.

Frankenstein Unchained is my favorite modern version of this story.  It involves time travel, and a really cool version of the Monster.

Just about everyone calls the Frankenstein monster by the doctor's last name.  I think his name was
Adam in the Shelly novel.

Go Frankie!

I haven't read the story in a while, but I don't recall him being given a name.  I could be wrong; I've slept since then.

You are probably right.  Not named in the novel.  Probably a stage play or something else where it was given 
a name.

And all this time I thought it was Herman 🤔

His real name might have been Abby.
