nosferatu 2024

i don’t think i will ever get over this movie. i’ve already seen it twice in theatres and i cried and was scared and was full of joy. i love gothic horror more than anything else. i love beautiful visuals and some weird little fucked up things happening. i love having the ability to think critically and analyze movies, especially ones with such powerful themes and amazing metaphors/representations like this one. eggers you will always be famous

gothic

crimson peak, bram stoker’s dracula, nosferatu, the others. perfect spooky atmospheric stuff. i’m also a fan of slashers like scream, my bloody valentine and halloween because who isn’t. and as for movies that actually scared the hell out of me, try religious horrors like the excorcist, prince of darkness, the omen and rosemary’s baby.

Viy (1967)

considered the first soviet-era horror film, a monk is called upon to preside over the final vigil of a young witch in a remote village, where he must spend three nights alone in the church with her coffin. the practical effects are so cool and ambitious. the whole movie is so pretty to look at, from the scenery to the architecture to the supernatural stuff. the story itself is based on an earlier novella, it’s very interesting and folky. i just love old horror like this :)
