  Nosferatu 2024

  ★★★★½ Rewatched 15 Jan 2025

  Second watch might’ve been better than the first. Fun to know what to expect and truly observe all the detail. Skarsgard is truly unrecognizable and kills it as Orlock — one of the main reasons I felt compelled to see it again. His haunting, death-rattle of a voice and Romanian accent are contagious.

  ★★★ Watched 10 Jun 2023

  One of the most imbalanced movies I’ve seen of late— being caught between beautifully crafted animation and a weak supporting narrative that doesn’t leave much guess work for the viewer. Felt like it was checking scriptural boxes and playing into overdone conflicts (with the unavoidable and required Marvel comedic breaks strewn throughout). Was hoping “more” would happen during this movie… Seems like just another setup for the next one. Franchises are fine, but this 2nd film could’ve had more legs…
