I like my vampires old world and creepy who entice and lure in, not the ones who suck d*ck

Please be rage bait

I just think that everyone who's mad about the Robert Eggers movie would also be upset about the actual ending of Dracula where the American with a Bowie knife is the Implement that destroys Dracula if that was put in a movie people would complain that is not put accurate despite what's in that those pages

Good thing Nosferatu isn’t meant to be Vlad the impaler

🤭

I think it’s probably a tip of the cap to the history of Nosferatu. Bram Stokers wife, Florence, baisically killed the movie when it first came out in 1922 in a copyright lawsuit but the movie gained such a strong cult following that Nosferatu could not be earased from the culture. As we all know Dracula is loosely inspired by Vlad Tepeș so that’s probably why the chose the mustache look. I ain’t mad at it. I’d go on that mustache ride. 🤣

What is with the fixation on his mustache? Is that really the only thing so many people took away from this glorious movie. Eggers did not set out to make a pretty sparkly vampire for women to get randy over. The moustache was a historical thing...at least he didnt give him curlies at the end

Dracula is old at the start at the novel and he gets young as he feeds on blood. Also real accounts of vampirism, or what was thought to be vampirism, tell us of nails which kept growing and lips that retracted showing prominent teeth. Thus, no-one gets it right, not even Bram Stoker which mixed the vampire and werewolf lore, the closest would be Tolstoy in his novella "The Family Vourdelak"which had several adaptations into film.
