Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban director Alfonso Cuarón weighs in on whether or not it's a horror movie, and he has a definitive answer.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban director Alfonso Cuarón weighs in on whether it's a horror movie. Released in 2004, the third installment in the film series adapted J. K. Rowling's novel of the same name and followed Harry Potter's third year at Hogwarts as he attempts to uncover the truth about Sirius Black.
In a new interview with Total Film , Cuarón was asked whether he considers Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban to be a horror movie. The director had a definitive answer, saying that it's "definitely" a horror film, and went on to explain why it has so many horror elements, including its inspiration from Fritz Lang to F.W. Murnau. Read Cuarón's full comments below:
Well, definitely. When I read the book, there were two elements that I liked. There was the horror film element, but also the noir aspect of it. In a way, when I was doing it, the model was more of the German cinema at the end of the silent era, and the transition into the talkies, like Fritz Lang to Murnau. You can see that some of Fritz Lang's films are kind of noir, but, at the same time, they have kind of horror elements to them.
Though Prisoner of Azkaban may not be a horror movie in the traditional sense, it does feature some horror elements, as Cuarón mentions. It introduces the dark and menacing dementors who guard Azkaban Prison and Professor Remus Lupin who is secretly a predatory werewolf. Most of the movie's climax also takes place in the Shrieking Shack, a creepy and supposedly haunted building.
