Can we start a petition to get Robert Eggers to remake Logan's Run?

Great video man

ONLY 30k subs??? You deserve WAY more holy shit bro 🔥

I love The Lighthouse! I caught a screening of Nosferatu and when it got to the Castle Orlok scene, I felt like I was transported to the doorsteps of Hell and meeting the devil known as Count Orlok. The amount of detail Eggers put into Nosferatu is just brilliance of the most otherworldly beauty. It's grotesque, hypnotic, beautiful and sirenic, like a siren sprung from the womb of the deepest Hell. And I loved every disturbing minute of it!

luckily communism saved them all.

“not necessarily evil”

5:20

In Nosferatu, we see the scariest vampire ever put to film. Orlok simply is-an eternal, insatiable appetite ( Professor Albin Eberhart von Franz: "Its desire is to consume all life on earth". / "Count Orlok: I am an appetite, nothing more." ) without beginning or end-he transcends moral judgment or even villainy. He becomes a cosmic horror, a manifestation of entropy, decay, or the inevitability of death itself. His existence as a fact of the universe, rather than a result of choice, makes him feel omnipresent and inescapable. There’s no reasoning with him, no defeating him in any permanent sense, because he represents something that’s always been and always will be. This timeless, indifferent quality taps into existential dread. Orlok isn’t evil in the traditional sense; he’s horrifying because he doesn’t need to be. His hunger is as natural as gravity or time, and that makes his threat feel universal, not personal. It’s a subtle but profound choice that adds to his immortality as a concept, rather than just a character.

The lighthouse is one of my favorite horror movies ever, and I normally hate any somewhat modern movie.

Wow you caught the similarities in the 2 movies I didn’t even notice. She rose up to darkness and he was cast down from the light .

SPOILER WARNING PLEASE

your production value is insane! i was glued to the screen the entire time and so convinced this had hundreds of thousands views you deserve them fr. you've got a new subscriber for sure! agree with pretty much all of this. i really enjoy all of his references to folklore and mythology and there were even a few from the lighthouse you brought up that i had missed myself. though i loved the witch the lighthouse was one of my absolute favorite films and the lovecraftian horror aspect for me was genuinely unsettling. theres this claustrophic feeling of dread in all of egger's films that steadily builds and builds until culminating into a sort of euphoric almost orgasmic madness and terror as the minds of his characters break that is so eerie and disturbing to watch. very few horror films can unsettle me anymore but eggers' lands everytime. i can't wait to see his nosferatu film i know its gonna blow me out of the water and i look forward to seeing your take on it <3

Busted a little early not including Nosferatu

Amazing video

My favorite Egger film was the Witch; that one affected me on a much more primal level. The Lighthouse kind of falls flat for me though. Something about the creepy forest setting and the demonic black goat entity and a family hallucinating witches and demons as they slowly go mad and turn on one another was much more unsettling to me. The Lighthouse completely fails to elicit a fear response from me, though, but I guess someone does have a reaction to it or it never would have done as well as it did.

The quote at 0:48 is chills

this was honestly incredible, thank you

Fantastic video! I firmly believe Robert Eggers is and will continue to be one of the greatest directors of our time 👏🏻

Your comparison of the two films with Egger's bigger vision and influences is perfect - thank-you for putting it all together. Love the Lovecraft tie-in mentioned - always felt this was in there somewhere - the unknowable until it is known which breaks the mortal mind and leads to utter madness. Masterful director and can't wait for Nosferatu !!

The worst monsters are the ones you sleep next to. Don’t be afraid of things that are not real.

Amazing video!

Ageless ........A wonder ........pure art...... the film and the filmmaker who changed cinema..... gave a true taste of cinema........

I would love it if you cover Bela Tarr. There is no doubt Eggers took a lot from Tarr, both stylistically and thematically.

dont watch the video i have the answer.. they eat because the developers wantet them to eat in that scene

Arrival is a very very very well edited picture - and modern, meaning updating the language we might expect from film editing historically. The whole film in fact can be boiled down to the timing between the different scenes. Never do Mr Walker and Mr Villeneuve stay too long in a scene. They always go out juuuuust a little before, leaving us wanting more, leaving us hooked for what's to come. Just brilliant!

obsessed with sex and death... and books.

great video dude, deserves more views!

Not really no lmfao yall have weak low ass standards buncha weak sheep to think this guy is something special when the majority of what he does is based on occult nasty crap.

peter greenaway is like this because he is an architect by education and his first film was dedicated to architecture. all his films are volumes of architectural documentation with long and abstruse explanatory notes referring to the philosophy of deconstruction compiled for projects that explain why people should live in such buildings as drawn in the project))..

Let's try to avoid 1. Quoting a French ped- whose whole oeuvre was created to justify his perversity and is complete nonsense; 2. Quoting a crazy German whose whole work is based on his personal mental issues and ideas and literally no basis on reality.

Amazing video - but I think you overlooked the fact that one of Thomas’s main struggles (and the reason he took the job on the isolated lighthouse) is due to his sexuality. He’s homosexual. He killed Ephraim partially due to his own conflicting desires for the man. He uses the imagery of the siren as a way to repress and hopefully overcome these desires, but he fails.

What's your favorite horror film? Are there any others you would like to see covered on the channel? I would probably add The Wailing to the few I mentioned in the video, that movie has one of my favorite ending sequences in cinema, which I re-watch frequently.

Thank you for this video

One of the influences on my career in the aerospace industry. Greatest achievement; Was requested by Boeing to be assigned to machine the Boeing 777 fuselage turning fixture. It became the best selling jumbo jet in history. 2200 sold, 1800 delivered, 1600 delivered from my fixture over 30 years without a single mass fatality accident to this day.

Almost 60 years since, still untouchable

Yo

The thousandth viewer of this video!

Nice video! But pace is so fast!

Amazing video ⚡ I watched These two movies many times and inspired me to write some short stories Keep up the good work ✨

I experienced this film on my 13th birthday in Montreal. Saw it a few months ago in Imax in Victoria. Wowsers both times! 13 and 68, what is this about? Hmmmm. Loved it anyway.

Amazing content

Love your work man, another great essay

one can argue that fight club might have the best wide shot closing scene.

Have you seen Let the right one in?

This is a movie that is so well done, you can turn off the subtitles, heck you can watch this muted even, and you will still understand why this is a masterpiece. This is nearly a flawless art film. From the story, the acting, the amazing visuals, and the scoring. I can not find one fault in it.

Your channel is a treasure

Glad to find a mini doc where there isn’t an annoying RUclipsr narrator. 🎉

For obvious reasons, I kept thinking of Parasite.
