Nosferatu director Roberto Eggers promises horror fans that his upcoming remake of the horror classic will make vampires scary again.
We only saw a few quick glimpses of it By Bill Skarsgard new take on the vampire Count Orlok, but it looks like our first proper look at the ancient bloodsucking creature will be worth the wait.
During a recent interview with Total filmthe director anticipated: “We have reached Edward Cullen, where vampires are not scary.
“So how can we go in the completely opposite direction? Vampires were so scary that people used to dig up the corpses, chop them up and set them on fire.
He added, “I think we deserve a scary, smelly corpse again,” and I couldn’t agree more. I hope he keeps that promise!
The film tells the story of the sinister vampire Count Orlok, played by Bill Skarsgard in the movie.
Nosferatu tells the dark and twisted story of a tormented young woman’s obsession (Lily Rose Depp) in 19th century Germany and the ancient Transylvanian vampire who haunts her, bringing with him unspeakable horror.
Speaking previously about the film, Eggers said: “It’s a scary movie. It’s a horror movie. It’s a gothic horror film. And I think there hasn’t been an old school gothic movie that’s actually scary in a while. And I think most audiences will find that to be the case.
The film is also the protagonist Emma Corrin (Deadpool 3), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kraven the Hunter), Simon McBurney (The evocation 2) AND Ralph Ineson (The witch).
I’ve also included a new image from the film below.
The film will be released in theaters on December 25, 2024.
