As you’ll have observed, the trailer is intentionally withholding of Invoice Skarsgård’s Depend Orlok, with varied characters merely intoning he’s “coming”—and this Christmas, no much less.

Particularly contemplating Werner Herzog already knocked it out of the park together with his 1979 remake, Nosferatu the Vampyre, starring Isabelle Adjani and Klaus Kinski— and don’t neglect that film’s unbelievable soundtrack by the German progressive rock group Popul Vuh. Nosferatu 2024 composer Robin Carolan will even have rather a lot to dwell as much as in gentle of the movie’s legacy.
