Robert Eggers brings questions of coercion and consent to the fore as he takes on legends of both literature and film with his stealth adaptation of Dracula via the influential German silent film from the 1920s, Nosferatu. In episode 335, join Luke Elliott and James Bailey as they try their Count Orlok impressions out, get surreal in Transylvania, and praise a stellar cast for their memorable performances, including from Lily-Rose Depp, Willem Dafoe, Bill Skarsgård, and Nicholas Hoult. They finish by casting their votes on whether the new film is better than the old, and how well it works as an adaptation of Bram Stoker's iconic novel!
