    This film proved to be an ineffable delight. Quite charming characters.

    Succinctly put, I thought this film was exceptional. So much so, I had to revisit it. The slow-burn pacing was utterly mesmerising, letting the tension build in a way that felt both natural and nascent, creeping up on you without a moment’s notice! Everything about it was simply exceptional.

    Orlok is merely a symbol, a manifestation of an uncontainable force borne of both societal and personal oppression, rejection, ostracism, and disquietude. Orlok dwells within us all, for each time one represses their darkness, they grant it more power to overpower the self. The purpose of this film’s design is to compel us to confront our inner shadows, not to yield to them, but to face them, to endure the unknown, the despondency, and wrestle with our deepest qualms. We must all strive to be as Ellen, for through her intestinal fortitude, she ultimately vanquishes Orlok.

    This film was incredibly dull and uninspiring, a true soporific cinematic experience.  While it’s strikingly similar to Immaculate, I found Immaculate far more enjoyable and thrilling by comparison. What a waste!
