NOSFERATU 100th Anniversary Trailer

2022 brings the centenary of the most influential horror film of all time, NOSFERATU.
100th Anniversary screenings of NOSFERATU in the UK & Ireland bit.ly/3vzyCzi
NOSFERATU (Masters of Cinema) Blu-ray Edition bit.ly/3gBiQv1
The turning point in the career of legendary director F.W. Murnau (SUNRISE, THE LAST LAUGH), the screen's first, albeit unauthorised adaptation of Bram Stoker's DRACULA (which itself celebrates its 125th Anniversary this year) features Max Schreck's unforgettable performance as the vampire Count Orlok, the most chilling portrayal of cadaverous evil in film history. Although a court order to destroy the film was successfully brought by Stoker's widow, some copies escaped, and subsequently gave the 20th century some of its defining images of supernatural terror and dread. A decades-long search for the best surviving material and a re-recording of the original score by Hans Erdmann now allows us to see the film exactly as it premiered 100 years ago.
A towering masterpiece whose legacy is truly incalculable, NOSFERATU remains as mesmerising - and haunting - as ever.

The shadow moving up the stairs is still the coolest thing ever.

Happy 100 anniversary to the creepiest silent-film era vampire of all time, *NOSFERATU!*

[@LarryFleetwood8675]

Filmed August 1921 - October 1921.

[@patriciomartinotti5694]

Please release the 1930 version!!!! Let's everybody mail Cinémathèque Française asking for a Die zwölfte Stunde, Eine Nacht des Grauens release

[@Ivosferatus]

For a 1922 film, it's really visually impressive.

[@63thetasigma]

The big question is, will we see a physical re-release, similar to the 90th anniversary edition of Metropolis? Perhaps this will get the UHD treatment?

[@JohnSmith-zl8rz]

Exactly, that's the big question here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@animateangus]

That Metropolis set is one of my prized possessions. That said, we didn’t get anything for Caligari, as far as I can remember.

[@jamiefrisby1914]

The Germans were really on point when made this, at the time this must have been scary as anything, fxxkin scary now, some of the images. Max shreck never looked so good as nosferatu the vampire. What a classic for all time

[@JohnSmith-zl8rz]

@@animateangus I also have Metropolis set, is beautiful. We need this and caligari.

[@walker1984]

Having a definitive version with maybe a special feature biography about the movie and maybe a tour of the castle(s) as they presently look would be nice.

[@knightofarkronia9968]

Happy 100th anniversary to Nosferatu!

[@LochNessHamster]

The thing that blows my mind the most about this film is how much of it was shot on-location. Film and the cameras that were used to shoot it were so temperamental, fragile, and the medium itself was still so new. They were dragging this equipment all around the German countryside shooting on dirt roads, at castle ruins, on ships and carriages. The logistics alone must've been a nightmare, and the risk of wasting or damaging film in the elements with unpredictable exposures. They wouldn't even be able to know what the shot footage looked like until they got back home.

[@MrTaff22]

cant wait to see Willem Dafoe in the new Nosferatu movie😊

[@ryandozier8053]

He’ll make an EXCELLENT Knock assuming that’s who he was cast as, couldn’t stand Roland Topor’s performance as Renfield (Knock) in Herzog’s Nosferatu The Vampyre, anyone can beat that lol

[@countorlok2912]

What an amazing moment to be celebrating an amazing Dracula film such as this one that’s amazing Nosferatu is one of the greatest Dracula films i ever seen it is by far one of my favourite Dracula films of all time

[@mrmoshpotato]

Hooray! Happy centennial, Nosferatu!

[@ingovonderluhe2174]

Unerreicht!Immer noch der BESTE Vampyr Film ALLER ZEITEN !

[@0oogabooga]

Happy 100th 🖤🖤🖤

[@arielperetz7210]

The best Nosferatu ever.

[@garym6315]

Nine years on from the bluray release and I STILL can't get an explanation as to why the restoration had such bad image instability compared to the 2007 DVD version. When you pause and frame advance the bluray it bounces up and down constantly whereas the DVD was stationary as a rock. I know it's much lower resolution, but I'd prefer to stick with my old DVD as at least that doesn't judder like a 100 year old film - it actually feels like it could be made recently.

[@aaronfrick4143]

Awesome!!! Anyone know if there are these of Faust and Die Nibelungen?

[@ingovonderluhe2174]

Check out DIE FRIEDRICH MURNAU STIFTUNG.They have released almost ALL German Silent Movies on Blu Ray!

[@mrsalento78]

Long live Orlok

[@rodrigocoockiemonster4460]

¿Adivinen quien va a recrear y grabar está película pronto?

[@monstertokusatsu6042]

Now tell me who's flicking the lamp ?

[@juanlagos2125]

Who owns the music in this movie?

[@mickjonesteeth]

Best movie

[@kodyallday9908]

I'll think that i will watch this movie again. I want to know how the soundtrack and the art is like. I have to study this film for I am writing a novel.

[@115spt2]

Wow less than 10k views...Thx world for not caring.

[@ohno4753]

Me and my dad just found it on Tubi

[@D.Angelo9]

Nosferatu. Does this word not sound like the call of the death bird at midnight?

[@user-bt5zy3xf1h]

The Definitive 🦇. And always will be.

[@spiderlime]

as far as i know, there's no centenary dvd

[@The_Cooler_Will]

Long live the bat rat 🖤

[@TheStockwell]

All the actors in this film are now undead. 😐

[@kodyallday9908]

I heard recently back in the day, this movie was based on bram stoker's Dracula. Some of the images of this tralier reminds me of Francis coppla's dracula from 1992. I think the movie looks good, but I think Francis coppla's version is better.

[@missmiagi2147]

Yes...you are correct! 'Nosferatu' is essentially Bram Stokers 'Dracula' with only names of characters and locations changed. Because of this, Stokers widow sued Murnau and his production company for copyright infringement, won the case, was ordered to pull the film from theaters, and to destroy all copies. He and the production company went "bankrupt" (so they didn't have to pay her). However, some copies survived, which is why we can watch it to this day. Every time a theatre was showing the film (in Europe), Stokers widow caught wind of it somehow and that copy was destroyed. Eventually the film made it to the USA and from there, it was easier to show and eventually faded into obscurity. Imagine if all prints had been destroyed, like so many other films at that time that we will never get to enjoy now?! It blows my mind that this beautiful piece of art would have been lost to history had it not been for a few good souls every now and then to protect and help preserve it. There are only a couple copies left in existence and one is definitely at the Smithsonian in DC.

[@IAmJimRetzer]

WHAT ABOUT THE US?

[@Livithen86]

Spoilers!!

[@prasadm.kumara2175]

1st horror film

[@muddyduck64]

sadly, it's not. However, the actual first film considered to be horror is a german film as well.

[@dr.strangelove.miguelaleja2825]

HI DEAR aam wat are you ??,,,,

[@jimmerhardy]

This film could use AI upscaling to make it richer, denser and more powerful.

[@martinddhyj]

Bullsh*t.

[@southern_cinephile3412]

It’s too old for me Just saying But I can enjoy specific clips of it

[@cerebralwolf666]

Nobody asked fella

[@Yeshua_the_Christ_saves_116]

No, you’re just too young. Lol. The horror movies y’all make these days are trash. Except Halloween.

[@RobertMoraleslv]

I get it's a classic but man this looks so cheesy

[@Qsrjeiwjwj]

You'd be surprised. Especially the acting of Count Orlok has aged very well, basically everything about him seems timeless.

[@LarryFleetwood8675]

Cheesy's the last word to use about this classic.

[@silvervalleystudios2486]

@@Qsrjeiwjwj His makeup was so ahead of its time that people were convinced that the actor Max Shreck was a real vampire.

[@muddyduck64]

most silents are .... unfortunately, subtle performances could not be translated very well back in the day... cameras and film had it's flaws.

[@muddyduck64]

The 1979 version of this film tried to use subtle performances and imagery to capture the horror of the first film and succeeded to a certain degree to erase the " cheesiness " of the silent and the perceived fast track of the old film which made the actors look like they were hopped up on speed. I would welcome you to watch both- back to back.
