Whether it be superheroes fighting each other or their archenemies, travelling to ancient Sparta to recreate legendary military feats, entering the mind of a psychiatric patient, or a zombie outbreak, Zack Snyder has developed a distinct visual style that gets transported to outer space with the release of Rebel Moon: Part One – A Child of Fire.
Despite the obvious narrative callbacks to Seven Samurai and Star Wars, aesthetically Days of Heaven was a major influence along with the sheer imagination of Snyder, which had to be translated by production designers Stephen Swain and Stefan Dechant.
