casting bill skarsgard as "hot nosferatu" is ??????? because dracula's whole thing is that he's supposed to be a sexy older man. bill is too little. but if they're just trying to copy nosferatu and not dracula as a whole, how are they gonna make him not an antisemitic caricature. mr eggers I have questions and concerns

#I love the og nosferatu but #i don't understand why you would choose to remake the unauthorized adaptation instead of just straight up using the source material #like maybe we've had one too many dracula movies but name-swapping the characters #just seems like you're trying to get film nerd brownie points #“super historically accurate and disturbing dracula by robert eggers” would've been a good enough sell on its own #that would've still allowed creative liberties and inspiration to be taken #....... hm we'll see #I'm just being a hater like always
