Succumb to the Darkness. Written and directed by Robert Eggers, Nosferatu is the gothic horror film starring Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, and Lily-Rose Depp. It is a remake of the film Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (1922), which was itself an unauthorised adaption of Bram Stoker's novel Dracula (1897). In the 1830s, estate agent Thomas Hutter (Hoult) travels to Transylvania for a fateful meeting with Count Orlok (Skarsgård), a prospective client. In his absence, Hutter’s new bride, Ellen (Depp), is left under the care of their friends, Friedrich (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Anna Harding (Emma Corrin). Plagued by horrific visions and an increasing sense of dread, Ellen soon encounters an evil force that’s far beyond her control.
