“I really don’t see how Nosferatu was scary if he was in SpongeBob!”
I’m not sure I really follow your train of thought. Bela Lugosi was turned into a puppet for Sesame Street, after all. Cartoons parody a lot of material that was never originally kid friendly. On the other hand, I’ll give you that even a critic who went to the premiere called Count Orlok “a big bug-bear”. But then again, some women at the premiere had a bad night. Reactions to Nosferatu have always been a mixed bag. Some people would piss their pants if they saw them, and others think he’s adorable. :) I think he’s adorably badass.
^ This comment. Especially about how he’s adorably badass.
No but look this whole thing just made me think of errbody’s favorite goth muppet, Nik Fiend
