Review of The Lighthouse (2019) by Sladeykaje — 21 Mar 2020
An atmospheric masterpiece. Robert Eggers is really solidifying his voice as one of the most original in the filmmaking industry, and along with Ari Aster, Jennifer Kent and Jordan Peele is re-redefining the horror genre.
The nature of his (and his brother's) writing is unflinching and bold and the 'elevated' language utilised is an excellent immersion. The same can be said for the directing and cinematography choices; the decision to use not only black and white but the granular lenses from a similar period is excellent.
I was very pleased with this one overall. 9.
