Vampire stuns audiences
This film is breathtakingly dark with stunning visuals and a 100-year-old storyline that is proven to be timeless. Directed by Robert Eggers, “Nosferatu” is both cinematically gorgeous and a good amount of grotesque without being too much. Jarin Blaschke, cinematographer, did an amazing job at making this unsettling movie a beautiful masterpiece. It felt like stepping into a realistic Tim Burton movie.
“Nosferatu” follows the story of a husband, Thomas, and his wife, Ellen, who are newlyweds and soon after their honeymoon, Thomas has to go away on a dark trip, leaving Ellen with their friends while she’s plagued with eerie nightmares. As the story goes on, it becomes known that Nosferatu is the cause of all the bad happening around them and now they must face it.
This cast was packed with some of Hollywood’s best and all gave performances that were bone chilling.
Lily-Rose Depp’s portrayal of a possessed, troubled woman who loves her husband was so all consuming and real. The scenes where Nosferatu takes control of her were terrifying and stunning all at once.
Nicholas Hoult did a great job at playing a devoted husband who wanted nothing more but his wife to be okay. I felt bad for him every scene because nothing ever went his way.
From Bill Skarsgård’s raspy, chilling voice to the sense of dread Nosferatu gives you when he’s on screen, his performance as the centuries old vampire will give you nightmares. He really captures the way Nosferatu is the personification of pure evil.
Emma Corrin executed the part as a woman who loved her family and only wanted to see her friend get better, and so did Aaron Taylor Johnson who was fed up with the evil around them and wanted to protect his family.
With many more actors and outstanding performances, this movie was visually gorgeous and this movie is bound to set high standards and leave a lasting impression in Hollywood.
