NOSFERATU is a theater for our most nefarious impulses where perversion and seduction collide in a psychosexual spell. Eggers’ relentless immersion into darkness encounters death with tormenting proximity while his direction has never felt more alive. Ferocious, feral filmmaking.

more than any other film, CONCLAVE stands out to me in garnering consistent conversation across multiple spheres: critics admire it, older demos showed up at the box office, younger demos brought it into meme culture, its killing on VOD these give massive contender signals to me

#Wicked soars on the dynamism of its lead performers with superb craft in its costumes and sets. Erivo and Grande are magic incarnate, which makes it all the more disappointing that its bloated storytelling and distracting back lighting weigh it down. Net positive entertainment, but flawed.
