Okay, Nosferatu.
So far, Robert Eggers is batting .1000 in my book. He's emerged as one of the most interesting filmmakers in recent memory. He's also a glowing example of why people with experience in production design tend to be good directors.
I would dare to say that this is his most "main stream" film to date. That's not to say that he's changed course, and made a film that demands nothing of the audience. It's simply slightly more familiar territory for average audiences. The language is more accessible.
Nonetheless, Eggers knows how to push a film into an absurd, insane world, and make everything fit. Everybody involved, particularly in the cast, understood the hyperbole of it all, and bought it entirely.
Jarin Blaschke's cinematography definitely deserves attention. He's as fearless as his director. The duo switched to film after The Witch, and they've only become bolder with each film.
I don't have many nitpicks for this one. It features a cheap jump scare or two. That doesn't detract from the fact that this is a horror film done right.
