  • Nosferatu

    Nosferatu

    Eggers' Film definitely looks fucking gorgeous, with almost every single frame being a piece of art. The actors are pretty good. Make up, costumes, the production design - excellent.
    But I couldn't care for the story. I wasn't scared at any time of the film, so Nosferatu doesn't work as horror for me. Then the film even starts to be boring after the shortest six weeks I have ever heard of were over. So what is this all about? I…

    ★★★★

    I am honest, I am a huge David Lynch fan, but I haven't seen Eraserhead until now.

The floor, the picture of the Trinity test, and, hell, even the arm was present here (and much more).
    Many uncanny moments make Eraserhead absolutely fascinating. The directing is superb; so many awesome shots, but it's so weird.

I have read Killers of the Flower Moon six years ago, I cannot recall the details, but I know that it was…

    Alien: Romulus

    ★★

    This could have been awesome. (almost) everything looks so good, the directing is outstanding. The idea of the plot is not bad at all, but somehow the film is too shallow and not tense at all. Furthermore, I definitely didn't need the last act...
