Based on the 1922 silent film, Robert Eggers, Nosferatu is a gothic tale of obsession between a haunted young woman and the terrifying vampire infatuated with her, causing untold horror in its wake.
We’re big fans of the movie, calling it “a painstakingly crafted dark fairy-tale and psychosexual symphony of orgasmic breaths, howling winds and sweaty longing for flesh, full of exciting performances and deliciously macabre imagery” in our FOUR-STAR review of the movie, which you can read in full here.
To celebrate the movie’s release in cinemas this week, we sat down with two of its stars, Lily-Rose Depp (who plays the target of that obsession, Ellen Hutler) and Nicholas Hoult (who plays her husband, Thomas Hutler) to talk about the popularity of female movie characters embracing their primal urgers, the myth of Dracula and their love of Sesame Street’s The Count and Dracula: Dead And Loving It.
