Coppola’s 1992 Dracula movie, titled Bram Stoker’s Dracula to give credit where credit’s due, is still considered to be one of the last really great gothic horror vampire movies. Elements of gothic horror can be seen in The Others, Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak, and a lot of Tim Burton films. But these movies rarely grab gothic horror by the horns like Coppola’s film did. Crimson Peak is more of a love story than a horror movie and Burton often puts a quirky, tongue-in-cheek spin on horror tropes, like with the zany, brightly lit vampires of Dark Shadows.

Nosferatu looks like it’ll not only honor this style of the genre, but be the best example of it in years. Universal’s Dracula movies with Bela Lugosi and Hammer’s Dracula movies with Christopher Lee will always be the most iconic cinematic interpretations of Dracula, but I’ve always been partial to Gary Oldman’s Dracula from Coppola’s version. With its rich color palette, campy performances, and sumptuous set design, Bram Stoker’s Dracula is the perfect visualization of the gothic style of Stoker’s novel. Based on the cinematography seen in the trailer, Eggers is borrowing that style in his own adaptation of Dracula.
