"What in God's Name?" Department, 2024 edition: a horror film opens on Christmas

[jmowreader]

It's called Nosferatu. It's a remake of a 1922 vampire film (apparently a ripoff of Dracula) which was a silent movie. It has an ensemble cast featuring Willem Dafoe and Johnny Depp's daughter Lily-Rose, with Bill Skarsgard playing the vampire. It opened December 2 in Berlin and the critics say it's awesome.

I don't know, guys...after a season of Christmas movies and Christmas songs, a good old-fashioned horror flick might be just the thing. No idea of the legs this has, but I predict a lot of people are going to use it to wash the Hallmark Channel movies out of their minds.

1. I will definitely have to see it!

Once upon a time I used to run an on-line text based roleplay game based in New Orleans and on White Wolf. It was called Cajun Nights MUSH.

Anyway, it is how I selected the name I wanted to use here, Nictuku. What I liked the most about Nosferatu vampires was that they could be invisible to humans.

I'm not a huge horror film fan, but I love Sci-Fi/Fantasy. I do hold a special place in my heart for vampires.

5. "Shadow of the Vampire", with John Malkovich as F.W. Murnau...

and Willem Dafoe as Max Schreck is a fun one about the making of the original "Nosferatu."
