This is a really good trailer. It does the film so much justice in the modern era and I forgot how excellent Peter Cushing truly was.

Well its good to hear they're still trying to find it.
The recent discovery of the orignal 3 hour cut of Metpropolis has given me hope that just about anything can be found haha.

Hopefully eventually, but nothing has been confirmed yet.

That footage was cut before it hit the cinemas in the UK, the censor just wouldn't pass it. I'm told by my BFI contacts that an extensive search has been laid on for possible extra footage, but so far dispite work with Warners in Japan, the Japanese print hasn't surfaced either.

Unfortunately i believe that extra footage is still lost. the only known print to have that scene i believe was destroyed in a fire. Rumor has it that prints in Japan might still have it though

I wonder when they say Uncut at the end if it includes the original mushy crumbling scene of Christopher Lee's disintegrating face which was used in many stills at the time instead of the cut to a skull and skeleton fingers etc? Hope to see a BFI DVD as they have made several excellent DVD's of all kinds of movies including a version of the original Nosferatu with a new score by the late James Bernard ( he of Hammer Films fame ) which is well worth checking out. This is Region 2.

Does anyone know if this version is coming out on DVD?

I'm Really Excited. This Dracula-Movie Is One Of The Best Ever Made, But This Quality, It's Better Than Any DVD-Version I Saw, I Got To Have That. Hope It Will Be Released In This Quality In Germany Some Time, Would Be A Good Reason To Buy It At The End (Haven't Yet Because Other Movies Were More Urgent). Can't Wait To See The Coolest Dracula And Most Ambigious Van Helsing On my Own TV. BFI, They Got The Magic Power... |
