This week on Friday Night Frightfest, we're diving headfirst into the world of 2024 vampire cinema! We'll be comparing two distinct takes on the classic vampire mythos: Nosferatu (2024) and Abigail (2024).
Nosferatu (2024)
Directed by Robert Eggers, Nosferatu is a visually stunning and atmospheric reimagining of the 1922 silent film. This modern adaptation boasts a star-studded cast and breathtaking visuals, promising a chilling and unforgettable cinematic experience.
Abigail (2024)
Directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, Abigail tells the story of a group of criminals who kidnap the 12-year-old daughter of a powerful underworld figure. They believe they're in for an easy payday, holding the girl for ransom in an isolated mansion. However, their plan quickly unravels when they discover their young captive is not what she seems. Abigail is not just a spoiled rich kid; she's a bloodthirsty vampire.
Join us as we dissect these two films, exploring their unique approaches to vampire lore, their visual styles, and their impact on the horror genre.
Spoilers start around 6:00.
