Darth Nihilus - Tumblr Posts
Darth Revan: uses mandalorian mask;
Darth Malak: has a replacement jaw that covers part of his face;
Darth Vader: uses life support mask;
Darth Nihilus: uses mask;
Darth Sion: his face is so disfigured you can't tell what his real face was like;
Darth Sidius: his face is so disfigured you can't tell his real face was like, and before that he used deceit to mask himself;
Darth Traya: used lies and betrayal to mask herself and her objective until the end.
Every sith wears a mask to hide their true, hurt and scared self: it represents their lies, the way they refuse to acknowledge themselves and how they hide their "weakness" and shame.
I can't put in words how much I love this detail and how it contrast with the Jedi who always have their faces out in the open.

In my opinion Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II (2004) was inspired by two of those stories
1. Spirited Away (2001)
I. First of all masks
II. Lord of hunger & Ghost of hunger
At one point No-face (your ghost) is eating everything and everyone in bathhouse.
2. Alien 3 (1992)
I. Story
Doctor in alien 3 (Jonathan Clemens) odly similar story to Atton. Bitter Sweet Romance of him with Ripley where he hides who he realy was in the past reminds me Atton and the Exile a lot.
II. Visual style overall, atmosphere, many desaturated colors.
