Dark City

A Picture of the leader of "The Strangers" examining a human

This film was released in 1998 in the USA. It is about a man who does not have a memory of his past and lives in a world with no sun. "The Strangers" from a different planet are in control of an underground world that controls the lives of the humans. The main character struggles to try and put his past together and destroy "The Strangers"
Even though this is an english film , while I was watching the film all I could think of was German Expressionism. There are many dark pathways, grimey looking buildings, and slanted archways. "The Strangers" look like an imitation of Nosferatu and lure in the background with shadows. There are also scenes that reminded me of the city in Metropolis.

Nosferatu

The giant head opens up into a clock, similar to Metropolis
