Remember Christmas 2024? While most of us were busy unwrapping gifts and indulging in holiday cheer, others were drawn to theaters for Robert Eggers' dark and chilling gift to cinema: Nosferatu.

This reimagining of the 1922 vampire classic didn’t just breathe new life into the genre—it pulled us into its hauntingly beautiful nightmare, leaving an unforgettable mark on that holiday season. While many of you have watched the movie, you might now be reflecting on your taste in films. And if you liked Nosferatu, you’re in for a treat.

We’ve rounded up a list of must-watch movies that carry the same eerie, gothic vibes. So grab a blanket, turn the lights down low, and let’s dive into the dark side of cinema. You’re in for a (terrifying) treat!

1. ‘Nosferatu’ (1922)

If you still haven’t watched the movie, it’s only fitting to introduce you to Nosferatu—the film that inspired remakes, including the 2024 adaptation, which closely follows the original plot.

The original Nosferatu (an unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula) has earned its place as one of the most influential and enduring vampire movies in cinematic history.

The story takes us deep into the shadowy heart of Transylvania, where Thomas Hutter (Nicholas Hoult), an eager estate agent, encounters the enigmatic and terrifying Count Orlok (Bill Skarsgård). Meanwhile, his wife Ellen (Lily-Rose Depp) is tormented by visions so dark they practically seep off the screen.

With Eggers’ signature atmospheric style, Nosferatu delivered a gothic horror experience that lingered well past the closing credits.

2. Cries and Whispers (1972)
