If I’m being honest, I didn’t know that a remake of the 1920s movie “Nosferatu” was even happening. Apparently, the idea surfaced over nine years ago, with director Robert Eggers keen on helming the project. However, nothing came of it during those years until September 2022 when casting began. Now here we are months later with a trailer and a release date, and the excitement has hit me all at once.
Directed by Eggers, (known for his masterful work on "The Witch" and "The Lighthouse”), “Nosferatu” is a reimagining of the classic vampire tale. I’m not one to watch really old movies, so I can’t comment on the original version. But, "Nosferatu" is supposedly regarded as one of the “scariest vampire stories” due to its atmospheric horror and grotesque, menacing depiction of Count Orlok.
