Werner Herzog’s issued by the BFI on Blu Ray

NOSFERATU (15) 1979  GERMAN HERZOG, WERNER BLU-RAY STEELBOOK – £22.99

•Release date: 19th May 2014

First time on Blu-ray for this newly re-mastered version of the 1979 gothic horror masterpiece from legendary German director Werner Herzog (Fitzcarraldo, Grizzly Man, Cave of Forgotten Dreams and Aguirre, Wrath of God).

Inspired by FW Murnau’s 1922 silent classic, Nosferatu stars Herzog’s regular collaborator Klaus Kinski as Count Dracula, Isabelle Adjani (Possession) as Lucy Harker and Bruno Ganz (Downfall) as Jonathan Harker. Popul Vuh’s ethereal music builds a mesmerising undercurrent that combines with Herzog’s rich visuals to create one of horror and world cinema’s most hypnotic and seductive experiences.

This specially-designed, limited edition SteelBook™ is released ahead of an extensive Werner Herzog box set from the BFI, which will include newly re-mastered HD presentations of 18 of his greatest feature films and shorts.
