That's a fair point, but I still find it an interesting choice that an entity as powerful as Orlok who has been haunting her dreams for years is as susceptible to being beguiled and completely helpless to pull himself away as a mere mortal. More so actually, since a man could have the presence of mind to pull out mid-stroke and run if his life depended on it.

The movie was entertaining enough, and I liked the director's previous work. I watched the Extended version on the Blu-Ray and I liked his commentary as well. The guy who played Orlok was great, I think all the actors did a good job, great atmosphere. My issue is with the ending. The group goes to destroy Orlok's crypt and only kills his henchman Herr Knock in his coffin. But that was all a distraction really. Orlok ends up dying because he simply lost track of the time while seducing and having sex with Lily-Rose Depp's character. That's it! He's a vampire who will die if he's up past daybreak and he simply is so horny that he forgets to leave before sun-up and dies as a result, along with Depp's character. He wasn't being chased by the vampire hunters or anything. Just forgets to keep track of the time. I thought that was anti-climactic.

VCR nostalgia made me click. Nice cartoon. I added Bello Bear to my favorite Android RSS reader app where I prefer to read comics including xkcd and some others.
