Robert Eggers is known for a few things. Funky, old-timey titles, period movies with extreme violence, and comedies about what No Nut November would be like in a big phallus. What he won’t be doing, under any circumstances,

Nosferatu' filmmaker Robert Eggers is pretty much dead-set on not making a contemporary movie, saying the thought of it makes him 'ill.'

Eggers’ Nosferatu, a remake of 1922’s Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror, was a gothic tale of obsession between a haunted young woman and the terrifying vampire infatuated with her, causing untold horror in its wake. The film earned four Oscar nominations.

Robert Eggers' masterpiece Nosferatu was all the rage this winter, thanks to a brilliant script and Lily-Rose Depp's stellar acting.

The director has only made movies set in the past, but he has chosen wildly different settings for each project.
