Even though most people have probably never sat down and watched the entirety of the silent film, Nosferatu remains one of the most iconic movies in the horror genre, with its imagery continuing to inspire just about every movie monster today.

Perhaps it's because of just how iconic (and old) the movie is that it's taken Hollywood so long to remake it, but Robert Eggers is finally currently at work on crafting a remake.

Although Eggers' only film so far is 2016's The Witch, it was an impressive debut, filled with the same period-setting horror that a Nosferatu would require. It's an inspired choice, and if the director can maintain the striking visuals of the original while coming up with a narrative that works for a modern audience, he could create a new definitive version of the character.
