‘Nosferatu’: The much-needed revival of gothic horror

With students returning to campus, one question is looming in the backs of everyone’s minds: How did you spend your Christmas day? Many will say, “spending time with family” or “nothing really; It was a normal day.” However, if you’re like me, you flocked to the theaters to watch Robert Eggers’ newest film, “Nosferatu.”

Timothée Chalamet delivers award-worthy performance in Bob Dylan biopic

If you grew up anything like I did, Bob Dylan was a household name. His albums would be constantly spinning on my dad’s record player, and “Maggie’s Farm” remains stuck in my head, even now. As I got older, I never sought out to listen to Dylan on my own time. There’s so much other music out there — it’s almost as if his discography had slipped my mind. However, seeing “A Complete Unknown,” the 2024 Dylan biopic starring Timothée Chalamet, reminded me why I loved the musician in the first place, and revitalized my desire to listen to his music again as an adult.


Youtubers Dan and Phil entertained audiences with a two-act show.

Dan and Phil’s terrible tour is anything but terrible

The theater was constantly erupting into screams, and at the times when the merch table was open, the line snaked all throughout the theater, winding around seats and the stage. Everyone wanted to get a “Dan and Phil made me Gay and all I got was this lousy T-Shirt” shirt, me included.


Sabrina Carpenter kicked off her "Short n Sweet" tour on Sept. 23.

‘From the princess of all things Short n’ Sweet’: Sabrina Carpenter opens new tour in Columbus

This was Carpenter’s first ever sold-out arena show, and she certainly expressed her gratitude more than a few times. At one point, she took out her earpiece to listen to how loud the crowd was, and she looked like she was about to cry. As special as the night was for the audience, it was just as special if not even more for her. Our girl has finally made it.


SOPHIE's first and final posthumous album was released on Sept. 27. Staff Writer Gina Roth is not impressed.
CULTURE

Hyper-fail: SOPHIE’s posthumous album is a flop

The entire album feels disingenuous and just an excuse for artists to put their name on a track next to SOPHIE, especially due to her status as a trans icon. SOPHIE has been inspiring trans artists to make music in the hyperpop space. The album should have never been released, and it feels disrespectful to her legacy.
