I do like Herzog's film but overall the original is more beautiful to me and certain aspects of Herzog's filming can be a tad ponderous (especially in the German edition of the film)... but ultimately they are both fine films.<br /><br />The print on this is beautiful but not perfect (due to the age and imperfections on the stock) I don't know if a blu-ray treatment would add anything to the quality, tbh, but I am sure one will follow at some point.<br /><br />19/5/12 2:33 PMTaliesin_ttlghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105263634442191232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-19309555849438458142012-05-19T13:51:20.106-07:002012-05-19T13:51:20.106-07:00Thanks for the review
Just ordered it from Amazon...Thanks for the review<br /><br />Just ordered it from Amazon UK myself, we both have PAL region so it should play perfectly, so I'll let you know what I think of this version once I receive it :) but pity this wasn't a blu-ray release.<br /><br />Now I just have to get Klaus Kinski's version of blu-ray, I only own it on standard dvd, along with it's semi-sequel. To be honest I rate Werner Herzog's film higher than Murnau's, which I see you rate 1 point lower?<br /><br />Kinski was always the quintessential Vampyre for me, the most horrific, sublime and hypnotic. <br />But I agree with your assessment of this film. Interesting about the occult connection, especially since Marnau also did a FAUST film....Gabrielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11124957599257011611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-26138087523547002662012-05-19T06:53:43.797-07:002012-05-19T06:53:43.797-07:00:):)Taliesin_ttlghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105263634442191232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23449634.post-78695806044750497922012-05-19T04:00:44.497-07:002012-05-19T04:00:44.497-07:00*drool*....Want it....*drool*....Want it....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06677605637257952349noreply@blogger.com
