Director Robert Egger's latest vampire adaptation, Nosferatu, has been a success and a recent report says that he is in talks for a new Labyrinth movie.

In fact, when somebody else does a movie similar to one of their films, like Joker, you might call it Scorsese-esque. Or, when somebody makes a violent movie with witty dialogue, it might be considered Tarantino-esque.

Audiences are still celebrating Robert Eggers latest horror masterpiece, Nosferatu, but another remake of a horror classic may already be on his docket if new rumors are accurate. Eggers is spoiled for choice on the heels of Nosferatu’s critical and box office success.

I’m not only talking about the fact that this new adaptation takes place during Christmastime, though the festive period helps. Under Robert Eggers’ writing and direction, there’s a confluence of facets that make up an unrelenting atmosphere of melancholy, danger, and death present in this film.

The latest adaptation of the silent film classic evokes anxieties at once eternal and contemporary, using one of horror’s ur-texts to dissect race, sex, and power.

The Nosferatu director acknowledged the benefits of a pre-existent IP but wants his future film to be an original.
