Can someone please help me. I'm looking for THIS version of the film... but there are like seven or eight different versions of "Nosferatu" available on DVD all claiming to be "restored". I own one version that I can hardly sit through because the musical score is so uninspiring. Where do I locate this version at?
@firstyouseeit This is supposed to be a werewolf, but is in fact a hyena. Murnau knew it was not a well known animal at the time, so he thought he could use it as a stand in for a werewolf.
I saw the 1922 horror silent-film "Nosferatu" when I was fourteen in October 2001. I thought that it was a great movie. Max Schreck was a great actor!
I love this movie! I thought Hutter reminded me of Willie Loomis in Dark Shadows! LOL! And where did they get the idea that a hyena would be what a werewolf looked like? LOLOL!
I've got my new Eureka version on the way I own the old Eureka version with the horrible synth soundtrack and the horrible transfer, I can't wait for this version to arrive.
The best image quality surving print is even superior to what we see in this restoration!!! They reduced the quality of it a bit, by turning more contrasting with highlighs a little washed out to try to match the image of other sources of lower quality, also used to reconstruct the film, since the best material had not all scenes of the complete film.
This is one of my favorite films; I'm really glad to hear about this edition. From the looks of the trailer, this will be the only print worth watching! Bravo!
Seens they found the original score, since years lather they was trying to find or trying to find remaining parts, as was not fully available, or something like that. The Bran Stoker widoW MOVED A LITIGATION AGAINST THE FILMS, DUE COPYRIGHT INFRINGMENTS, AND TH COURT ORDERED THE DESTRUCTION OF THE ORIGINAL NEGATIVE AND ALL COPIES, Luckely few copies and a good copies also survived, and was used for this restoration. Now, 85 years later, the film is complete again.
WOW! The quality is sooo much better then the DVD I own. They did a GREAT job restoring this. I can't wait to pick it up and hear the oridinial score along with it.
Considering it was shot in 8mm, I'd say Fritz Wagner is one hell of a cinematographer.
Am I only one who thinks Nosferatu is among Murnau's worst survived movies (which still doesn't make it bad)?

@Retardretroguy It was not shot in 8mm, dude. It was shot in 35mm. 8mm would look more than terrible.

@BenTheoRowe You're right. It was released in 8mm, which got me confused.

This looks like it has MoC and Craig Keller's fingerprints all over it. Way to go.
