never thought of the story as psychosexual, does orlok get down?

[queenursula]

He's more sexualized in this film.

honestly anything with bill skarsgard is automatically sexualized for me so i am ready for this unstable journey

In Dracula 2000, it was the traditional story except Lucy and the story's version of Mina (Mary) work at Virgin Records and Dracula is just Gerard Butler looking sexy and attracting every girl in New Orleans.

So yes, that one was psychosexual LOL.

Have you ever read The Scorpion's Mate? He's a half-man, half-scorpion alien thing and falls in love with a human girl and when she gets hungry, he feeds her through his dick/a blow job because his cum is nutritious and tastes like a tropical smoothie.

I think vampires are inherently psychosexual, as an allegory for seduction/disease. I think the 1979 version does a great job of contrasting the pestilence of Orlok (like the rats on the boat) to the lustful power he holds over Mina.

There was that lucky lady in Shadow of the Vampire. But then that was Max, not Orlock
