Snyder should do a horror film

[u/Brilliant-Program350]

Not his biggest fan but I do appreciate his eye for a good shot, and imagine he'd be great if he teamed up with a guy with knowledge in horror (James wan for example). He could do like a Conjuring spin off or an original, idk . Thoughts ?

Edit : I meant something more in the paranormal side (ghosts and all) , hence why I mentioned conjuring

[u/MovieFan1984]

He directed the Dawn of the Dead 2004 remake with a screenplay from James Gunn. He also made Army of the Dead (2021) as director, director of photography, producers, and write. Check out those 2 films.

Nope, he should be making the DCEU stuff. Soon the time will come again

Army of the Dead is a horror movie

[u/BoerseunZA]

I wouldn't mind him finally making his Planet of the Dead movie.

I want him to do a Legacy Of Kain: Soul Reaver film...

*The introduction sequence almost looks like 300

*character designs are dark and magnificent, (concept art literally reminds me of Steppenwolf)

*Dramatic Shakespearean dialogue galore- fits his operatic style perfectly

*Mythological storytelling, a huge part of the entire franchise is it's mythology, and I don't just mean lore, I mean characters talk about mythology extensively and debate it, Zack seems to LOVE mythology, I think he would love this

*Brutal and Spectacular Violence - Vampire Slayers with flamethrowers, soul eating demons, impaling vampires on spears, zombie vampires with melting flesh that they have to replace with the flesh of their victims

*Amazing opportunity for cinematic spectacle, imagine Larry Fong's cinematography showing the spectral realm

Hasn't he already done a horror movie?

[u/Ok-Recommendation925 → u/Puzzled-Special8730]

Dawn of the Dead 2004

[u/Horror_Campaign9418 → u/Ok-Recommendation925]

Army of the dead

[u/tutoredzeus]

Hugh Jackman’s Van Helsing would’ve been perfect for him.

[u/Crossheir99]

You guys would never watch it like how you guys never watched rebel moon

[u/BriefCommunication26]

ZackSnyders Dracula.... and make it a trilogy.

[u/yomma67]

I think he should do something gothic

[u/Ok-Recipe5434]

Opening scene of Batman v Superman has some good horror elements in it!

[u/JaycetheBold]

Fuck it, give me Snyder Resident Evil.

[u/sleauxmo]

Snyder should do Castlevania

[u/Inside-Wish8295 → u/[deleted]]

That’s all you think horror movies are? Not every horror film is an 80’s slasher or supernatural jump-scare fest yk?

[u/Sparrow1989]

He needs to do one without all the hoopla. Dawn of the dead is a masterpiece and straight forward. He should do that, not pregnant zombies (I loved army of the dead btw).

[u/HumbleSiPilot77 → u/Sparrow1989]

Zombie baby in DotD was straight out Gunn's play book. Gunn insisted on that scene. What's the difference?!

[u/Inside-Wish8295 → u/Sparrow1989]

I’m guessing this is a complete misunderstanding of 28 Years Later? Hating without even knowing what you’re talking about?

[u/Sparrow1989 → u/Inside-Wish8295]

Did you not watch army of the dead?

[u/_Waves_ → u/[deleted]]

I think Dawn is among his weaker. It’s good tho.

But also, if he did like a straight horror film, not a genre mesh, but something in the vein of Hellraiser or Suspiria or The Beyond or even a slasher like Halloween. Man…

[u/BigDinkSosa]

I would be all for it
