What We Do in the Shadows: Matt Berry's Masterclass in New York City
Let's talk about the gift that keeps on giving: Matt Berry as Laszlo Cravensworth in What We Do in the Shadows. This show is a treasure trove of comedic gold, but let's focus on the shining star that is Laszlo. He's basically the vampire equivalent of a lovable, slightly inept golden retriever.
Laszlo: The Unlikely Heartthrob
Who would have thought that a centuries-old energy vampire with a penchant for terrible fashion and an even worse accent would become a fan favorite? But that's the magic of Matt Berry. He takes a character that could easily be a one-note joke and turns him into a complex, hilarious, and oddly endearing individual.
Laszlo's journey from awkward, socially inept vampire to confident, albeit still slightly clueless, New Yorker is a joy to watch. Remember that episode where he tried to become a human? Classic. His transformation into a human energy vampire was a stroke of genius. And let's not forget his iconic line, "I am the most devious bastard in New York City." It's a phrase that has become synonymous with Laszlo's charm and audacity.
The Magic of Matt Berry
