In this spine-chilling episode, Stuart and Jacob welcome Stephanie back to the show as they dive into the haunting realms of the undead and compare the iconic 1922 silent film "Nosferatu," directed by F. W. Murnau, with the 2024 Robert Eggers remake. They explore the eerie atmosphere of the original, characterized by its German expressionism and the unsettling performance of Max Schreck, and contrast it with Eggers' modern take, featuring Bill Skarsgård in the titular role. What elements of horror transcend time, and how does each film reflect the societal fears of its era? Can the dreamlike terror of Murnau's vision hold a candle to the nightmarish intensity of Eggers' interpretation? And how does a hundred years of movie-making impact what audiences find scary?

Also featured in this episode are bits on Stephanie's projector horror movie double features, a discussion of Bram Stoker's widow, the importance of soundscape in horror storytelling, and some idiotic fan-casts that'll make your head spin. All this and more on They Remade It!
