This week on Swoon-Worthy, or should I say Spook-Worthy, we sink our teeth into Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu (2024) — and trace the vampiric lineage through a century of cinematic adaptations. From the eerie 1922 Nosferatu silent film to Werner Herzog’s haunting 1979 remake, and from Bela Lugosi’s iconic 1931 Dracula to Gary Oldman in Coppola’s lush 1992 version, we explore how each film reimagines the vampire myth for its moment. We break down the cast and pivotal scenes in Eggers’ latest vision, and reflect on what makes these stories so enduring, seductive, and strangely comforting. Whether you’re here for folklore, fangs, or fog-drenched castles, this episode is a love letter to the vampire’s cinematic evolution.
