Just when you thought it was safe to visit the spooky castles occupied by mysterious yellow recluses in Eastern Europe, the new trailer for “Nosferatu” comes with an important health and safety warning. The upcoming vampire horror is a new adaptation of FW Murnau’s 1922 silent film “Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror,” which takes its story from Bram Stoker’s “Dracula.”
“Nosferatu” stars Bill Skarsgård as the titular vampire, Count Orlok, with Nicholas Hoult, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin and Lily-Rose Depp playing unfortunate youngsters who fall under Orlok’s influence. Are. The film reunites director Robert Eggers with Willem Dafoe, who starred in his 2019 surreal thriller “The Lighthouse,” and Ralph Ineson, who battled an evil goat in Eggers’ breakout debut “The Witch.” (and lost).
The director’s previous films have included slow-paced horror elements, but this time he promises a Gothic horror tale that’s genuinely scary. If you dare, watch the new trailer for “Nosferatu” above…
