Robert Eggers’ 2024 Nosferatu, a remake of the 1922 silent film of the same name, has proven to be a box office and critics success. Inspired by its striking visuals and storytelling, we’ve compiled a short list of films that share its black and white or supernatural elements in ways that are intense and macabre to meet the mood.

1. Spit & Ashes

by Maria Beatty

Spit and Ashes is a reimagining of the historical violence waged against women by patriarchal forces in the name of religion, medicine and family. The High Priestess embodies the wild, sexual and grotesque – the un-tamable hunger of female desire and the ultimate threat to male power. The Midwife is the spirit of all women who sought knowledge and agency over their own bodies and paid for their agency with their lives. Through a series of erotic and brutal rituals these women come together to reclaim their bodies and prepare for the fight ahead.

Dark and moody, award-winning masterpiece in black and white, co-written by its stars Sadie Lune and Dion de Rossi, with chants by Lydia Lunch.

2. POSSESSION

by altSHIFT

In a cabin in the woods, a nun discovers an ancient text which releases a love demon. Possessed by the incubus, the nun is pulled towards the pleasures of her flesh. The Madonna and whore battle within her and, as her pleasure grows, the whore looks to win out. But the difference between purity and depravity is a myth and her body’s rapture brings the nun closer to God than all the prayers could in the world.

Nat Portnoy’s talent and flexibility shine in this spooky solo performance.

5. As You Wish, My Lady

by Jo Pollux & Sadie Lune

My Lady likes a dark space underground, we’ve all spent time there but none of us know the way. We wait for her inside ourselves, touching each other maybe. She first appears as clacking boots and crushed fig leaves on a stairway, then the boots slacken until still. She’s probably deciding, or maybe she’s done it days ago. I hold my breath, and hope.

A stunning poetic display in black and white, showcasing the trust and skill shared between these powerful porn performers.
