Saw the new Nosferatu movie today. Pretty good watch! Nails the gothic aesthetic, and now I'm itching to get a Peterson Dracula.

Does anyone know what kind of pipe Willem Dafoe's character smokes in the movie? I'd attach a picture but I cant find any online, so I'm banking on someone who has seen it and knows what type of pipe it is. It is quite the lengthy pipe.

it looks like a Tyrolean with a cherrywood stem and silver windcap. He talks about it on Instagram and there is a brief clip showing a better view of the pipe. Maybe you can grab a screen capture of it.

Definitely a Tyrolean it looks like! Would love to own one some day, even just as a display pipe.

My son and I watched Nosferatu before it was in release, courtesy of a Visual Effects Society screening platform. He absolutely loved it and I was a bit less than enthusiastic. It's beautifully made but I found it to be a bit one note, with everything happening at a fever pitch instead of modulating between major story points, leaving the result somewhat flat for me. It's like throwing a bunch of supersaturated colors on a wall. When everything is supersaturated, nothing looks supersaturated.

As for the pipes, hell if I know.

Watched it yesterday. I found it to be a fews steps below The Last Voyage of the Demeter.

Tempting. Can't remember the last time we went to a movie theater together and looks like $25 to watch it via Prime Video as of tomorrow - it will be streaming on Peacock in a couple of months. I tend to enjoy the genre in general (didn't even mind the FTD Florist guy's turn (Louis Jourdan) as Dracula back in the 70s - we gathered one night in the dorm when it was on U.S. TV for some beer, tacos and Dracula, heck even Jack Palance got in on the act back in the day), whether original "Nosferatu", Hammer Draculas, or other "takes", so I may be typing myself into it - heck even the "Man From U.N.C.L.E." had a vampire episode (and I think I still have the paperback somewhere). It'll be below zero tomorrow night again, and some burning logs in the fireplace and appropriate snacks are sounding pretty good.

Watched it. Couldn’t get into it. Too many off notes in different areas for me and Dafoe should have stolen the show (because it was there for the taking) but the couple of times he (even if just a couple seconds) got borderline campy detracted and he didn’t seem “weighty” overall. The beast? Not really effective to me, didn’t care for the choices made in how we see him (or try) onscreen. Ending? Gave it away as a plot point on purpose, then kept telling us in one way or another how and why. Backstory on the femme fatale and the related and entire plot point should have been set up better/presented. Other than all that Mrs. Lincoln and I enjoyed the production.
