 Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht (1979)
With Werner Herzog's "Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht" (also known as "Nosferatu: The Vampyre"), the old Hollywood rules seem to have been thrown out the window in favor of F.W. Murnau's striking silent film, the 1922 masterpiece "Nosferatu: Eine Symphonie der Grauens" ("Nosferatu: A Symphony of Terror").
While many purists of the genre balk at the idea of favoring the Nosferatu tale over the time-tested Tod Browning and Terence Fisher entries, one must realize that the cape-clad widow's peak Count has been sullied by a thousand parodies over time, and is simply not a frightening entity any longer.
It could be considered a pity that the only film that sits upon its coattails is its predecessor of the same name.

Most of the music on this album was also used in the Herzog movie "Nosferatu, Phantom der Nacht" which has its own soundtrack release.
None of the songs from Brüder are duplicated as such on Nosferatu (aka On the Way to a Little Way), though pieces of them appear in a remixed form among some abstract synth explorations, sitar pieces and the dark, droning choral repetition of "Mantra".
They play sort of funky, sort of noisy usually up-beat stuff with the highlight being Claypool's amazing basslines which are worth getting the albums for on their own.

 Nosferatu The Vampyre (Reissue)
NOSFERATU, THE VAMPYRE was originally filmed in German and released as NOSFERATU: PHANTOM DER NACHT (“Phantom of the Night”).
It’s a film of poetic, somber images: a forlorn Lucy wandering alone on the beach, abandoned by her husband; Dracula’s shadow creeping across the outside of buildings as he prowls the streets at night; the parade of identical wooden coffins being carried through the town square, in the wake of the plague.
NOSFERATU, THE VAMPYRE is beautifully filmed but slow-moving, a series of lyrical meditations as opposed to a plot-driven narrative.

"Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht" ("Nosferatu the Vampyre"), 1979, Jonathan Harker, directed by: Werner Herzog, starring Klaus Kinski, Isabelle Adjani (Lucy Harker), Roland Topor
In 1960, aged 19, he played his first movie role in Der Herr mit der schwarzen Melone (English title, "The Man in the Black Derby").
In 1972 he made his debut at the Salzburger Festspiele under Claus Peymann as director in the first performances of Thomas Bernhard's Der Ignorant und der Wahnsinnige.

 Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht (1979)
Nosferatu's Count Dracula is not a charming eastern European gentleman with a quirky bloodsucking habit and a lovesick soul, he is a wily, terrifying, soulless, inhuman, obsessive, predator.
Nosferatu is a retelling of the Dracula tale.
Like many of the films involving Herzog and Kinski, Nosferatu is a period piece and creates the context of its plot through beautiful cinematography and a relentless but unhasty pace, not through the script.

Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht – West Germany/France – 1979
The performance’s most striking aspect is its utter believability, and the viewer may wonder if it is the character of Count Dracula himself or Kinski’s complete absorption in the role that is the more frightening.
The opening credit sequence is a macabre gallery of what appear to be real, mummified corpses, providing an almost perverse verisimilitude just as the use of gypsies and local culture serves to contextualize the film in Germany in the 19th century.

Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht (1979) (aka Nosferatu the Vampyre)
As a consequence of pursuing this goal Nosferatu the Vampyre is most emphatically not an actor's movie, full of detailed characterisation and meaty dialogue.
In Nosferatu the Vampyre Werner Herzog makes a valiant effort to achieve the impossible; remaining true to the definitive film version of this story while taking the Count into uncharted territory.

 Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht (Nosferatu the Vampyre)
He was mainly going to stay true to the conventions Nosferatu created for the horror genre, but he also intended to add a lot of depth and dimension to it.
In the original Nosferatu, Gustav von Wangenheim seemed a bit too lame and oblivious to feel too sorry for and you want to laugh at Shadow of the Vampire's Eddie Izzard before he even gives you reason.
Doom is foreshadowed after the nightmare when we switch from the latest place Nosferatu left in ruins to Lucy's town, where we hear sweet lyrical music as kittens play with Jonathan's necklace that has Lucy's picture in it.

 dOc DVD Review: Nosferatu the Vampyre (Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht) (1979)
Werner Herzog's Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht is a remake of the silent F.W. Murnau classic, Nosferatu.
Nosferatu is visually luscious, but emotionally rather empty—despite Kinski's excellent performance as the tortured vampire, the film seems slow, distant and oddly cold, a collection of evocative images without a compelling human element.
Nosferatu suffers most from a problem not of its own making—most viewers know the basic Dracula mythos so well that there are few surprises here, and the film's measured pacing exacerbates the potential for boredom.

 Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht (1979)
This version of Nosferatu, in places almost a frame for frame remake, is a masterpiece of homage.
Trivia: The scene where Nosferatu arrives in the city required thousands of grey rats.
The slow, somewhat exaggerated reactions of his characters brilliantly echo the performances given by the silent actors in the original film.

 Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens / Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror / Nosferatu the Vampire / 1922 / film review / F.W. Murnau
Nosferatu - Phantom Der Nacht, with a heavily made-up Klaus Kinski in the role of Orlok.
Nosferatu is a film about desire, about the power of the subconscious to assert its control and wreak havoc on the external world.
The original, and by far the best, vampire film is Murnau's Nosferatu, a Symphony of Horror, a film that was born out of the unholy marriage of German romanticism and the expressionist movement of the 1920s.

 nosferatu the vampyre - film review for zone-sf.com
Nearly all remakes of acknowledged classic films suffer in direct comparison to their originals, and Herzog's Nosferatu The Vampyre (aka: Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht) is no exception.
The ashen-faced bloodsucker of Nosferatu stalks his prey like an arthritic cat, feebly pounces in an almost pantomime fashion, then settles down tiredly for some melancholic necking.
The fact that this film (also made, like Murnau's, in Germany), although ostensibly a proper remake, so closely mimics the original at times that to the casual observer there appears almost no difference, stands as a testament to the power and influence that Murnau's classic still wields over later generations of filmmakers.

 Barnes & Noble.com - Nosferatu the Vampyre
Despite the efforts of Herzog and cinematographer Jörg Schmidt-Reitwein, though, Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht is mainly carried by the inimitable Kinski.
Nosferatu was filmed in both an English and a German-speaking version; the latter runs 11 minutes longer.
Essentially a retelling of Bram Stoker's Dracula, Nosferatu the Vampyre traces the blood-sucking progress of the Count as he takes over a small German village, then attempts to spread his influence and activities to the rest of the world.

 DVD Times - Nosferatu the Vampyre
Firstly, it includes both the German (Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht) and English (Nosferatu the Vampyre) versions on separate sides, and rather than resort to dubbing, Herzog shot the dialogue sequences in both English and German, making each version subtly different.
Werner Herzog's Nosferatu is a fascinating, frustrating piece of work - crammed with memorable images and ideas, many of them quite unlike anything to be found in other vampire films, it nonetheless is fatally hampered by an overly slavish devotion to its great forebear: F.W.Murnau's 1921 Nosferatu (which I've reviewed elsewhere).
It's all too obvious that Anchor Bay shares my opinion, since it's the German version that comes on the side with all the extras and the commentary - and, just to rub it in, the German soundtrack has been given a Dolby Digital 5.1 remix, with the English version in plain vanilla mono.

 DVD Times - Woyzeck
Based on an unfinished 1836 play by Georg Büchner, Woyzeck is again an exercise in style and an attempt by Herzog to align himself with German culture in a similar way to how he paid homage to F. Murnau and the origins of German cinema in Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht.
Herzog started filming Woyzeck only 5 days after completing Nosferatu: Phantom der Nacht, and even that was only leaving enough time for Kinski to grow back some hair.
Seen from Woyzeck’s point of view, the world around him is increasingly absurd and threatening and he struggles with his sanity, pressing his ear to the ground, hearing voices that direct him to take violent action.
