Jakob's Wife (2021)

Anne is married to Jakob, a minister in a small town. One night, a young woman named Amelia is attacked by a vampire ("the Master"). Anne tells Jakob that a man from her past named Tom Low is visiting the town to work on a project involving a mill, and that she will meet with him. Anne and Tom meet up, and Tom says that he is surprised she wound up marrying Jakob and becoming a "church mouse", forsaking her "adventurous" side. Anne and Tom go to the mill. They briefly kiss, but Anne asserts her fidelity to Jakob. Tom is soon attacked by a swarm of rats, and Anne is attacked by the Master, who bites her neck.

Gradually, Anne transforms into a vampire. She craves blood, eats worms, starts growing new teeth, is burned by light, and appears to be under the control of the Master. At one point, the Master appears outside Anne's house and compels Anne to masturbate briefly before getting caught by Jakob.

Jakob is upset about Anne's new behavior, and suspects Tom is to blame. Jakob goes to the mill to confront Tom, but instead sees Amelia—now a vampire—attack and kill a young man. Amelia asserts that she does not want Jakob's God's love, and that she has found a new savior whose love gives her strength instead of fear. Jakob escapes from Amelia and returns home to find Anne vampirized and having attacked someone to consume his blood. Anne asserts that she was being controlled, but that she feels more alive than she has in years.

Jakob plans to track down the Master in order to return Anne to her non-vampiric state. The Master confronts Anne, telling Anne that she seeks no ownership and that she only wants to liberate Anne from an oppressive and anchoring husband. Anne responds by asserting her love for Jakob.

Anne and Jakob reconcile, and work together to help satisfy Anne's thirst for blood. Eventually, the Master confronts Anne again, asserting that she wants to help liberate Anne from the oppression of men and forced domesticity. Jakob kills the Master with a wooden stake, saying that he "finished it", but Anne responds by saying that it was not his choice to make.

Later, Anne and Jakob decide to sell their house and move away. Anne asserts that she wants to make her own decisions from now on. Jakob wants to seek a cure for Anne's vampirism, but Anne disagrees, saying that she likes who she has become. They converse tensely for a bit, and Jakob clutches a wooden stake as Anne bares her vampire teeth.
