Two favourites from Werner Herzog, courtesy of the BFI
Nosferatu is Werner Herzog’s masterful contribution to the vampire canon, both a discerning tribute to FW Murnau's 1922 silent classic and a singularly atmospheric and thoughtful horror film in its own right.
It comes to Blu-ray for the first time on 19 May 2014, released in a Limited Edition SteelBookTM ahead of its inclusion in mammoth Herzog Blu-ray and DVD box-sets in July. Click on the link above for the trailer.
Also out that day is a visceral, ambitious exploration of megalomania and savage beauty, Aguirre, Wrath of God, which remains one of Herzog's most brilliant achievements and one of German cinema’s totemic masterpieces.
Coming to Blu-ray for the first time in a Limited Edition SteelBookTM, it will also be included in mammoth Herzog Blu-ray and DVD box sets released in July. The SteelBookTM contains both English and German versions of Aguirre, four other Herzog films, including Last Words and Fata Morgana, and feature-length audio commentaries with the director for both Aguirre and Fata Morgana.
