"Unraveling the Frozen Corpse Mystery in True Detective: Night Country"
In HBO's "True Detective: Night Country," showrunner Issa López drew inspiration from Dante's "Inferno" and mummified bodies for the frozen corpse centerpiece, known as "The Corpsicle." López collaborated with Guillermo del Toro and Igor Studios to bring the grotesque murder tableau to life, meticulously planning and creating detailed body casts and ice blocks. The production faced challenges in transporting and filming the corpsicle in Iceland, but ultimately achieved a chilling and visually striking result, adding to the show's blend of crime procedural and supernatural elements.
