The best iteration of nosferatu since the original from 1922.
This version forgoes the atmosphere and eeriness present in the original and replaces those moments with dread and hopelessness.
I may just be nostalgic towards the original but those eery moments (such as the scene of nosferatu in the doorway of the castle) are what I was really looking forward to in this version but instead was handed a "spectre of shadow" which does the trick in its own right but in a different way.
