Main Topic:

"Nosferatu (2024)" is a unique take on a classic folk tale about Dracula, but boy is it a horny one! With stellar performances and odd tonal shifts with the introduction of more characters, it becomes a wild journey executed very well!

With a star-studded cast in Bill Skarsgard, Willem Dafoe, Lily-Rose Depp and Nicholas Hoult, Tommy & DL marvel at the subtle sexual references, how the vampire couldn't be called "Count Chocula", and the spiffy Aaron Taylor-Johnson being the perfect patriarchal female subjugator!
