    First trailer appeared for Eggers' lates since The Northman. I'm down for anything he makes and this looks like a potentially great adaptation.

    I'm definitely down for this too. Hoping the sight of Skarsgard as Orlok is worth the wait!

    I love how The Northman became this huge digital hit, after the various wails of despair over its failure at the box office.

    The real question is: will there be a spongebob cameo?

    Enjoyed his previous works but never got to see any of them in the cinema. Will be making the trek for this one.

    First poster for it.

    It's been rated R in the States and debuts on December 25th there.

    I was hoping this would be a Christmas flick for me to enjoy but I can see it's a January release here. Ah well.

    Hyped for this! I was sorry I didn't get to see The Northman on the big screen. I watched the JoBlo and Chris Stuckman reviews last night and they were full of praise for this. So will have to go and see this in the local multiplex come January although it's probably going to get some secondary smaller screen like Longlegs did.

    It's been a good year overall for Horror👍

    Didn't Chris Stuckman say it's not a typical horror? Another review I watched also mentioned it's almost like a dark fantasy instead of pure horror.

    That is a weird collection of reviews. How reputable is Roger Ebert's review team these days? It's great to see that the film is playing well with the populist outlets but also concerning that the Brits don't seem to think anything special about it.

    IMO the individual reviewer is more relevant than the outlet - e.g. I don't tend to bother with the Graun for film because I find their coverage inconsistent and lacking the depth I'd like; Bradshaw can be good at times but is maddeningly inconsistent for me. As far as UK reviews are concerned, Mark Kermode, Kim Newman and Anton Bitel are the names that first come to mind as reviewers whose opinions would count to me (Edit) specifically for a film like this where an appetite for, and familiarity with the history of, horror will make a notable difference to the substance of the review.
