  He's 3/3 for me currently. I still wasn't blown away by the one trailer I saw for Nosferatu but he hasn't let me down yet. Can't wait to see it next month, think it'll be the last film I see in theaters this year after Gladiator II yesterday.

  I'm in total agreement regarding Eggers. He is one of the few it seems who still care about the art of cinema.

  Well, Nosferatu is really killing it with the reviews so far. Not a surprise, but still happy news, of course, and I can’t wait to see it when I get the chance. That being said, I’m still disappointed Anya Taylor-Joy was not the lead as originally planned. She did so well in The Witch and The Northman, but sadly don’t know if she and Eggers will collaborate again.

  This is one of the best trailers I've seen in years.

  But... without Melissa and Jenna, I'm already much less enthusiastic about the film and the people producing it. The article also mentions
  

  Sidney's daughter

  
  which feels like they're milking the cow even drier. But hey, Scream 5 showed that they can still surprise me, so who knows.
  
  (But not Jenna... I'm sad.)

  I'm crushed to hear of the passing of horror legend David Lynch:

  I've just seen Nosferatu again, and I can't get this film out of my head. On the one hand, it's a close remake of the original, with only a few additions to the story. On the other hand, it's a stylish, bold, and perplexingly alluring film that highlights the often-overlooked thin line between horror and beauty. I find myself captivated by its mystery; as was the case when I first saw Herzog's version, my mind cannot escape the film's enigmatic grip. Eggers has created a movie that feels precisely tailored to my taste.

  It is pretty awesome. I look forward to revisiting it a lot once the 4K drops! Theater tickets near me are just too expensive for more trips right now sadly, but I’d love to see it again otherwise.
