A hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two lighthouse keepers on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s.
"The actors play it big and bold in a visually striking, black and white horror show."--Richard Roeper.
"Eggers meticulously sets the scene, adds texture and builds tension and mystery from men locked in battle and sometimes in embrace."--New York Times.
"Two primal performances from Willem Dafoe and Robert Pattinson carry Robert Eggers' second film to glory. Stunningly shot in black and white in the boxy format common in the silent era, The Lighthouse seeps into your bones with a power that won't let go."--Rolling Stone.
