It has been announced that a remake of F. W. Murnau's 1922 horror film, Nosferatu, is in the works. For those who are unaware of what Nosferatu is, it is essentially the story of Dracula except that the characters have different names because the studio was not able to get the rights to the novel. The silent film, despite being almost a century old, is widely considered one of the best horror movies of all time, ranking 3rd amongst Rotten Tomatoes' "Top 100 Horror Movies". What excites me about this film being remade is that it signals a return to what vampires are meant to be, which is terrifying monsters. In the past 10 years, there hasn't really been a good incarnation of any of the classic horror monsters (Dracula, Frankenstein, the Werewolf, etc.). In my eyes, the best vampire movie in recent years was 2007's 30 Days of Night, but it does not relate to Dracula and doesn't even mention the word "vampire" throughout the film. A remake of Nosferatu has the opportunity to terrify audiences in ways that films such as 1981's American Werewolf in London and 1931's Frankenstein did. No official release date has been announced yet but Robert Eggers, who won the 2015 directing prize at the Sundance Film Festival with his film The Witch, is set to write and direct the film.

As Jacob helps Cal navigate through his newfound sex-life, he meets Hannah (Emma Stone), who he describes to Cal as a "game changer " for him. As the friendship between Cal and Jacob progresses, they each discover things about themselves that they didn't know where there all along. Crazy, Stupid, Love. is, in my opinion, one of the most underrated movies in the past 5 years and it's one of many movies that I always urge people to go out and see. It's a romantic comedy but it's different than your typical rom-com and contains some awesome twists that hit you without warning. It's a very funny movie that shows you multiple stories that all...
