Happy 2025! This month at The Film Club we’re talking about vampires but this month is unlike our Twilight Month, we’re talking about one vampire who has transcended time while continuing to shock and scare audiences. We’re talking about the Count himself, Nosferatu! What better way to start than at the beginning with Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror! The film follows Thomas Hutter a young newlywed who works as a real estate agent. His employer Herr Knock gives Thomas the opportunity to travel to Transylvania to visit a new client who is a Count who seeks to purchase a new residence that happens to be across the street from Thomas’ home. Thomas is excited about this opportunity that can potentially lead him into buying a bigger home for himself and his new bride. Thomas excitedly tells his wife Ellen about his business trip but Ellen doesn’t share his excitement she instead feels dread and begs him not to leave. Thomas ultimately leaves for his trip thinking he’s doing what’s best for his new family not knowing he’s heading into Count Orlok’s castle a fearsome vampire who will eventually become obsessed with Thomas’ wife. Join us as we dive into the world of Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror.
