Director Christopher Nolan has dabbled in many genres from superhero blockbusters to war dramas, but he is yet to make a horror movie. However, that's not because he doesn't want to, the filmmaker just hasn't found the right idea for one yet.
Speaking at an in conversation event at London's British Film Institute (BFI) yesterday, which GamesRadar+ attended, Nolan discussed how his latest award-winning feature Oppenheimer does lean into horror. As anyone who has seen the biopic of the father of the atomic bomb would know, it is a truly haunting movie, which is hardly a surprise given the subject matter. However, one scene set at Fuller Lodge following the launch of the bomb is particularly horrifying, as Oppenheimer has visions of the destruction his invention has caused.
