Movieman, what would you think would be the best edition of the original Murnau "Nosferatu" to get? I've seen several editions, and don't trust many after seeing some lousy dubs! Does anybody have any recommendations on which to get?
A friend of mine has an old VHS version, with even a "plunking" sound as Orlok puts together his horse and cart!

I have the Kino Video version, it has 2 soundtracks, and a lot of extras. It has the extra footage, (not much) and looks great compared to others I've seen
Also Vampyr is not a silent film, there is dialogue, it's very hard to hear at times, but it is there.

Nosferatu,
Does not this word sound like the call of the death bird at Midnight? You dare not say it since the pictures will fade into dark shadows, ghostly dreams will rise from your heart and feed on your own blood
