The timeline is going to be very tight so in order to not cut into the evening time I will try to be actually very punctual and regimented.  We’ll only have time for the pee break song (https://tankie.tube/w/1GEpTVKWpxrzsmpui2pXEg) in between the movies

Continuing the vampyric theme from 2 weeks ago because it’s winter.  However, by coincidence, both these movies also have a lot of SA themes as well.  Sorry, that wasn't deliberate.

First up is Vampire’s Kiss (1988) at 4:00PM Eastern Standard US Time.  It is 1h43m minutes long.

Second will be Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu (2024) at about 5:48PM Eastern US Time.

Vampire’s Kiss (1988)

Nosferatu (2024)

A remake and reimagining of the 1922 Nosferatu, directed by Robert Eggers (famous for The VVitch, The Lighthouse, and The Northman.  This is his first non The ___ movie!)  It sounds like it is much less wholesome than that one.

Content Warnings for Nosferatu (2024)

Violence and gore: Severe

someone bites the head off a live pigeon, very graphic.  “ When Dr Sievers visits tje crazy man in prison is when the man bites off a pigeons head. After they walk in & you see him petting the pigeon around 53:00 - 54:09” — from DTDD
a lot of blood from vampire attacks.
self-mutilation, cutting

sexual violence: Severe

Actually it might be moderate but I’m erring on the side of caution since I’ve seen someone describe this film as “one big metaphor for sexual assault”

Stalking
Not shown, but mention of sexual assault of a child.
“There is no obvious sexual violence. However, the depiction of vampirism at times resembles and/or may be interpreted as sexual or erotic in nature” — UnconsentingMedia
