Dave Bautista leads the cast really showing his range. Everyone in the movie is interesting to watch and each of the harbingers reflects visceral sadness and horror at what they have to do. Genuinely a fascinating movie, slightly let down by a few scenes where the director doesn't trust his audience to understand what's happening.
Brilliantly staged, shot and performed with a huge amount of sinister energy. All the cast shone with some really fun moments of 'normallity' making the switch and darkness of the horror of Orlock's influence really stand out. There are some brilliant subtle visual notes and the whole film is a great update and homage to both the original and the novel that both were based on.
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Possibly the greatest cinematic attraction in the history of motion pictures. How it didn't get the Oscar for greatest dramatic feature I'll never. Know.
It's actually an ok movie and is quite fun in places, it's just, dear Lord, talk about a sudden ending, I genuinely turned to my friends and said "wait, where's the rest of the movie?"
