Eureka! Entertainment and The Masters of Cinema Series are delighted to announce the Halloween 2013 theatrical and home video releases of an eagerly awaited new restoration of F. W. Murnau's legendary silent cinema horror classic Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (1922), expertly restored in Germany by the world-renowned Friedrich-Wilhelm-Murnau-Stiftung (FWMS).

This revival of a horror classic, one of the most famous of all silent films, follows Eureka! Entertainment's hugely successful restoration showcases of Fritz Lang's Metropolis (1927) in 2010 and Carl Theodor Dreyer's The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) in 2012.

Nosferatu's UK theatrical run will be co-ordinated by Eureka! Entertainment and will open in selected cinemas nationwide on Friday October 25, 2013, just in time for Halloween. Blu-ray and DVD releases will follow with a raft of special features to be announced nearer the release date, as part of Eureka! Entertainment's award-winning The Masters of Cinema Series.

Steelbook confirmed via Twitter:

We're thrilled to announce that F. W. Murnau's masterpiece NOSFERATU will see a Halloween 2013 theatrical release, followed by MoC Blu-ray, in a new restoration. The Blu-ray and DVD will follow in November with new special features, and will be available in a SteelBook edition.

A must buy for me, now we just need someone to do a "Shadow of the vampire" steel to make a nice companion piece.

 

[XXHAPPY GILMORE]

As of now, this is my most anticipated steel of the year

If anyone hasn't seen Shadow of the Vampire, I'd definitely recommend it. A "What if?" story set during the making of Nosferatu in which Max Shreck is actually a vampire. It's much better than it sounds!

Willem Dafoe is great in it.

Agreed. They look and feel very classy. Can't wait to see what the artwork will be on this one

 

[Steeler]

And let's hope they don't go and do something stupid with their unique design... like desiding to emboss the image with a raised border. Stick to what works, Eureka!!

I hope they stick with this artwork. The original MoC DVD release of this looks pretty good, a steelbook would be perfect for this kind of artwork.
