Up and Coming Films

[Nosferatu@Cult Labs]

That looks extremely promising, a reverential retelling of Nosferatu with appropriate imagery.

It's promising having Eggars directing.

I think I?ve only seen a handful of pics and not the trailer. I?m guessing that Ralph Ineson is in the cast lol

Having now watched the trailer... it looks like it could be quite terrifying and definitely intense. It's made me want to watch the Herzog version again.

As he showed with his first three films, Robert Eggars is brilliant at period settings and perfectly evoking eras and locations from decades or centuries ago.

This should look and sound amazing, and it is virtually guaranteed to have a great script and fine performances from the fine ensemble cast - if any current actor is appropriately skilled to portray Count Orlok, it's Bill Skarsgard.

It certainly looks like Eggars largest budgeted film. That disappointed me with The Northman. It was so small in scale.

He plays Dr. Wilhelm Sievers. A character who wasn't in the 1979 film.

I've seen The Northman twice, once when I was a little distracted by people talking, and once when I gave it my undivided attention.

I think it's an intense and powerful tale of revenge Hamlet, with an exceptional central performance from Alexander Skarsgard. I've been meaning to give it a third watch before filing the disc away, but haven't found time to do that yet.

I initially thought it was inspired by Hamlet because the story parallels Shakespeare's famous tragedy until I read that Amleth was the inspiration for Shakespeare's play.

Doesn't look like anything came from that!

Instead we get 'Final Destination: Bloodlines' - Release date match 2025

"A teenage girl inherits premonitions of a 1960s tower collapse from her late grandmother. She must confront Death to save her family's bloodline, battling to stop her recurring nightmare visions from becoming reality."

Two young missionaries are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed (Hugh Grant), becoming ensnared in his deadly game of cat-and-mouse.

This looks like a very unusual piece of casting with Hugh Grant playing the antagonist, something he's done more frequently in recent years after a splendid performance in the sublime Paddington 2 and the surprisingly good Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, and this time in a film which appears to be very tense and threatening.

I haven't seen 65 or Haunt, the two most recent films Scott Beck and Bryan Woods wrote and directed, but I thought the screenplay they wrote for A Quiet Place was very good.
