Nosferatu (2024)

When I listen to a cover version of a song, I want to hear what the artist is bringing to the tune. (It's part of the reason Glee was so successful.) I might even hope that the cover version unlocks something that the original couldn't have accessed, an act that redefines whose song it is. (Otis Redding's 1965 version of "Respect" seems like a footnote to Aretha Franklin's version after 1967.) 

So, when Robert Eggers announced that he was adapting Murnau's "Nosferatu" and Bram Stoker's "Dracula," I was hoping for something more than Gus Van Sant's frame by frame remake of "Psycho." Eggers recenters the film on Ellen, make Thomas less passive, and expand the cast by adding more characters around Ellen and Thomas. To accommodate these additional characters and their storylines, the film grows to more than two hours. This comes with the additional cost that the film has to remind us in its lethargic second half things about Count Orlok's shadow and its connection to the plague and the conflict between scientific modernity and "the old ways." 

Eggers also tried to bring his special, research-driven touch by writing Count Orlok's dialogue partially Dacian, a predecessor to Romanian reassembled for the film by Florin Lazarescu. And he tried to raise the stakes by adding nudity and violence, which previous versions of Nosferatu could not have included.

I just wish the film, beautiful as it was, didn't leave me so bored and unsure what Eggers was attempting to say about the need for a woman to sacrifice herself for the good of the community. 

There are undeveloped strands of criticism of modernity (for all of the pride that Dr. Sievers has in his era's medical sciences, it still seems barbaric to our contemporary eyes, and technology in the form of a gun is no match for Orlok's eastern, supernatural power) and capitalism (Thomas's employer sends him to Orlok's estate in Transylvania to secure his job, and Thomas agrees to a contract he cannot understand earn a commission). There's even a small critique that remarks on how the rich react to quarantine during a pandemic: to look out for their immediate family and break quarantine with no regard for the welfare of others. However, these strands are not the film's primary concern. 

Eggers spends the film's energy on building Ellen as a character, but he isn't able to create new ways to express Ellen's agency. In Murnau and Galeen's version, Ellen makes the choice to sacrifice herself to save everyone else. That choice is built into the story, so Eggers cannot claim credit for making Ellen's sacrifice an active choice. On the other hand, Eggers places the blame for Orlok's coming on Ellen because she and Orlok acknowledge that she had summoned him. 

Eggers also adds another scene that muddies his attempt at feminist recontextualization. Thomas witnesses what he thinks is a Romani vampire hunt at the inn, where a nude virginal woman is led on a horse as bait for the local cemetery's vampire. The woman there is bait, just like how Ellen has to be bait to entice Orlok to destroy himself. The old ways, represented by the Romani peasants, and the embodiment of the modern world's attempt to understand the old ways, Professor Von Franz, both agree: the woman has to be sacrificed for the good of the community. In Ellen's case, we can add some Victorian prudishness to it, since she must be punished for her interest in sex by allowing Orlok to ravish her body. 

This cover of Nosferatu is very pretty. I just wish Eggers was clearer about what he's trying to explore in making Nosferatu now.

The Trial’s Of Lawrence: James Pledge

Sorry guys, I want to take out my anger in some stories.

James Michael Alexander is a former police officer who is now my teacher unfortunately I hate him constantly joking at my expense I loath him.

I have wanted to end him since I was last in his class, one day I walk in with a note from a ex teacher, he cracks his Knuckles a bit hard.

His bones crack, the class stares with ugly ass wild bones then I knew it throwing a tiny canister on to the floor letting it roll out to the middle of the room.

The canister explodes upon on impact with the smoke rising in to the air spreading from wall to wall everything fades into a totality of nothingness.

The paper drops James eyes go wide as the letter falls to the floor, he lept up to see just us and he stares at me but I shrug my small shoulders.

I face him raising my hand snapping a white light blocking us in, I burst in to a fit of hard laughter and his expression is fraught with fear.

“Scared huh? Bad ass cop my ass “

“God! I hate you, you suck”

“What? Why?”

“Zip it fucker”

“How dare you speak to me like that?”

“You think I give a damn “

“You are not worth my time “

“I am here to teach you a lesson”

“Who do you think you are?”

“You know what”

“Boom”

“Is this better for you student?”

He stands up checking the whole room out in disbelief he is back in an empty class room but in reverse.

I am not pushing his check back picking up a piece of chalk writing the re-education station.

“This is way station “

“You will exit this room with a new life “

“Now read…test begins in a hour “

“There is a million books”

“Oh well! Get to it”

“Now wait a minute “

“I SAID NOW”

Snapping my fingers the time spins three times faster till it ran out the alarm goes off and I swoon.

The test a literal one hundred pages appear on his desk he speeds through it the nerves overtake him

.

He looses himself in anger finishing it he is. now standing and stretching unaware of the transformation.

“Ok pipsqueak”

“HEY!”

“You barely passed”

“Look at the mirror “

“What the fuck?”

“Asshole “

“You will now permanently be a porn artist on every planet.”

“Hold on….please “

“I am sorry…I will”

Ignoring him I drop a judges hammer his body freezes then vanishing in to the void his destiny is settled.

More teachers through my experiences are now settled in the seats now this is a never ending space.

The Trial’s Of Lawrence: Student Counsel

Waiting in the bathroom for a specific fellow student I catch up to him to mess with me with a picture.

He thinks it ok to put me in to situation I despise having to agree to but it’s me where I had nobody believe me.

“Fuck you!”

“Hold on…”

“How about I take a picture of you ?”

“Listen…”

“Uuuugggghhh!”

“Haha”

“Dumbfuck !”

“I think I’ll sell your ass”

“Walk to the wall”

“Turn around “

“Pull down your pants and underwear”

“You will come here every day till the day of graduation”

“Leave at the end of the day after being used all day “

“They will fuck you fuck you raw “

“To you cum”

“You are my bitch “

I smirk pressing my body on to his kissing his neck, my pants slide off and my cock I on fire.

Entering him I begin to pound him slow, hot and steady as he begins to moan I point him to the man.

I releasing myself I instruct the young man to use him as he sees this will be his life from now on.

“Mwahahahahaha “

“Fuck! Hot ass”

“Payment “

“Thank you!”

“Enjoy bitch”

“I’ll eviscerate you after “

“What?”

“Nothing “

“Mwahahahahaha”

Students pile by the door paying me more and more.

“Idiots! Not a man after all”

“Get in pussies”

“Mwahahahahaha “

“By the way”

“Call me daddy”

“Yes daddy”

“Once you fuck him”

“They will be wiped “

“I hate people”

“They will all suffer “

“Everyone tell me how you want “

“Pay for them”

“Then fuck off”

The end
