Good News, Horror Fans: Christopher Nolan Says People Are Comparing 'Oppenheimer' To The Genre
- 9 months ago
Christopher Nolan’s love of science comes into play yet again in his latest biographical movie "Oppenheimer." The director's next World War II movie is about theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer who invented the atomic bomb. So, considering this movie is about the beginnings of a weapon that can cause mass destruction, it seems logical that an early viewer compared it to a horror film.
The first trailer for "Oppenheimer" was already chilling as it gave us a vague and cryptic description of what audiences can expect. We see a juxtaposition of black-and-white shots of J. Robert Oppenheimer with a narrator keying us in about the man who created a weapon of mass destruction and the colorful shots of an explosion. Fire twirls around in a horrifyingly enticing dance reminding us of what to anticipate with this biographical thriller.
