It's not the mustache I didn't like...
So I've finally watched Nosferatu twice now on Prime Video. To be honest, this movie didn't quite have the tone that I was expecting. I thought it would be way darker and from the reviews I heard before I saw it, I thought it would be way more violent. But overall I thought it was just okay.
Now ever since it came out, I've only heard people complain about the mustache. I personally didn't mind it. The two things I really didn't like was Orlok's voice, and the fact that he looks rotted the entire time. Isn't Dracula supposed to be rejuvenated by blood?
The thing that bothered me about the voice was how monotone it was, and how much rolled his R's. I know it's supposed to a historically accurate dedication of a Transylvanian Nobleman and the language and accent, but Idk it felt like it didn't quite hit the mark for what I wanted to see and hear. Like Bill Skarsgard had to work with an Opera singer to do that voice? I just felt like you could really tell he was putting it on.
