Bravo also to Robert Eggers for probably the least bad depiction of Transylvania in Western vampire cinematic history:
1. Having actual Romanian actors doing the dialogue in Romanian. You'd think this is a low bar to clear but nope.
2. High quality costume design that looks pretty accurate to 19th century Romanian and Roma peasantry, even down to specific braided hairstyles from the Transylvanian region.
3. Depiction of Roma people but refrains from having them as some typical Hollywood exoticizing role like a magical fortune teller etc. They're in like half a scene, just chilling and playing music in front of an inn.
4. Use of the word "strigoi" which are actual spirits in Romanian folklore, unlike the term "vampire" which didn't exist in Romania.
5. Sorry to the Nosferatu moustache haters, but a Romanian nobleman would have had that exact facial hair.
6. Depiction of religion (nuns, churches) that actually looks like Eastern Orthodoxy and not some vaguely spooky goth Christianity.
Get behind me Andy!

Professor Charles Xcuntier:
Guys please. If any electronic music listeners are out there. I NEED you to listen to the Hatred album by FIENDGRIEF. It scratches every void left by Crim3s in my heart and mind (and ears) . They have less than 500 monthly listener and I need to put the word out because I feel insane and need more people to listen to this.
Listening is not enough, I need to eat the album
I can’t believe I actually finished a drawing. I didn’t think I knew how to do that.
I’m obsessed with DMC5 at the moment and V is one of my favorite characters. I think about what his character means in regards to Vergil constantly. Capcom, bring him back and my life is yours.
