Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu Remake was a success with horror fans with his obsessive graphics, the Gothic tone and the inexorable sense of terror.
The film is a reimmagination of the 1922 silent classic and the story is set in the 19th century Europe and follows the left chase of the count Orlok of a young woman like her eternal bride.
Although it may not seem that Eggers’ last horror masterpiece has a lot in common with Tim Burton’S 1992 Batman returnsThe same director recently revealed that he saw an influence.
While talking to the podcast Happy Sad Confused, Eggers shared an intriguing realization: “I was watching on one of these flights … I threw up Batman returns And, as, the snowy and Gothic atmosphere of that film is, it is shocking enough to many things we were doing here, which is something I had never considered at all.
“But Wayne Manor, as, does not seem very different from GrűNewald Manor. I must say except to fall into pieces. So it was a little interesting. “
Once the comparison is done, it is not difficult to see it. Moonful Gothic images, snow -covered landscapes are undeniably similar. While Eggers does not go out immediately and says Batman returns has directly influenced his NosferatuBurton’s images can be unconsciously unconscious in his creative process.
Regardless of this, both filmmakers are known for their love for the heavy Gothic aesthetic. However, since Burton often uses a playful quality in his work, Eggers protrudes completely in dark and presumed atmospheres.
Most Nosferatu’s Visual power derives from its reduced production design, which emphasizes the mysterious desolation of the world of Orlok.
Production Designer Craig Lathrop Explained to the world of interiors: “If you go to the Castle of Orlok, for example, it is quite scarce. It does not have many furniture; It doesn’t need many furniture.
“And this helps everything to feel disturbing, right? It is what gives the Castle that aspect obsessed with the house: to undress everything, because I wanted Hutter to really feel alone. When at the beginning he enters there, it is only him and edge: there is no place to go. “
This minimalist approach gave its fruits, gaining Lathrop an Oscar nomination for the best production design.
