Tries to art house, but only manages lame

So, not quite certain what the point of the movie is. It seems to want to make a post-modern take on a classic horror. But instead, it evokes teen drama that would make Dawson's Creek look Oscar caliber. Nice try by a few folks, but the film itself isn't going to win any serious viewers. And cameo status at best for Lance Henriksen.

Awful, Simply Awful

Who keeps letting this guy make movies? He couldn't direct his way from the toilet to the sink. Mimesis Nosferatu is unoriginal, lacks vision, lazy directing, no style, no thought, nothing.

Already over it

15 minutes in and I'm already ready to move on. Whiny girl wants the lead but she's not a good actor. Mysterious new guy comes in and beats up people not knowing both sides, and that's supposedly cool. Random beatings and bullies, killings going unanswered. Everything you shouldn't do in a movie this does. And let's not talk about the uncharismatic male lead. The story just didn't make sense or flow together.

A role to die for... or undie?

I find no reason for the low ratings other than the respective viewers didn't like the flick.

Taking in account the low budget this is a true gem!

Sure, the minimalistic surroundings and makeup make much more sense after having seen the original 1922 Nosferatu.

Also, bear in mind, this is a movie about a theater play, so the setup is theatrical.

You just don't get shapeshifting CGI miscreants and moldy castle walls in a half a million budget.

Instead you have an amateur theater troupe making a school play, and they make do with what they have with flying colors.

Julie Kline really claims her fame here in the Scream Queens' Hall of Fame.

There is a decent amount of blood here, but die hard fans of the slasher genre may still expect more.

This is what you get for your buck and a half.

Explaining the deeper meaning of the gory deaths would just kill your imagination, just like in the original century old Nosferatu.

Dracula is evil and the evil here is Dracula, and you connect the dots.
