Matt and Katherine Bergevin follow up on their discussion of Dracula and Carmilla to discuss F.W. Murnau's 1922 classic horror film Nosferatu as well as two of the most important remakes by Werner Herzog and Robert Eggers.

This podcast is tagged as explicit material because we discuss prominent themes from the films including sexuality, sexual assault, and animal abuse. While we do not go into more detail than is necessary, if you don't want to engage with these themes, this might not be for you.
