Scary Thoughts #124 - Nosferatu (Robert Eggers –2024)

About this episode

The hosts discuss the 2024 film Nosferatu, exploring its themes, details, and the rise of Lily-Ross Depp as an actor.

In this episode, we sink our yellowed fangs into Nosferatu (2024). It's one of our best conversations in a while. Likely due to our occult powers ascending and a potent peasant stew of nicotine and caffeine. We talk about orthodox exorcisms, Lily-Ross Depp's rise as an actor, supernatural penises, and what kind of undead creatures we'd like to be. Robert Eggers has once again delivered an incredible looking film that shows what you can do with an absurd obsession for details. Are we all in on this mustachioed addition to the vampire mythos? Definitely. Though, we have our usual Statler-and-Waldorf-grade complaints.
