"Don't worry, he's still a creep" Yeah, he's portrayed by Klaus Kinski, of course he's s creep. When I saw Herzog's Nosferatu in the early 80's, I thought Isabelle Adjani was the most beautiful woman in the world. Murnau's Nosferatu was one of the first DVDs I bought. It really is great for a silent film. I also recommend Shadow of the Vampire with Willem Dafoe as Max Schreck. For my favorite Vampire film, I'd have to go with 1992 Bram Stoker's Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola. Incredible cast, great old-school visual effects.

I can't even look at young Jon Voight without seeing Shiloh

Long Friday is a great film but you said you haven't really seen Bob Hoskins movies. Felicias Journey is his best. Amazing film nobody talks about

And what about "Shadow of the Vampire"? It's about the making of 1922 Nosferatu but with a real vampire.

You are going to love “The Long Good Friday.” Along with the original “Get Carter” it is THE great British gangster thriller. Hoskins gives a searing performance as a guy who finds his carefully orchestrated scenario mysteriously crumbling around him. Helen Mirren is equally great. Also, look for an early appearance by Pearce Brosnan as an IRA gunman.

You haven't seen BRAZIL with Bob HosKins

I saw Happiness in the theater when it was first released. There was a sign taped to the door: “no refunds will be given after the first 15 minutes” lol

Happiness just gets better with every viewing! Glad more people will be able to enjoy it now. I bought the original DVD when it came out-- I saw it in B&N's video section and recognized the Dan Clowes artwork on the DVD case (I collect his work among others), which made it an instant buy for me. I love the film and it is still one of my all-time favorites. So glad this is getting a HQ release.

nosferatu actually mean undeath, sferatu mean exspire then nos sferatu meant not expired

Not enough people review Hertzog's remake let alone give it the love that it so desperately deserves. Thank you.

05:53; Via Vision put it out.

One of the Werner Herzog heroe is Murnau

Original is better

Wow Happiness!!! Thank you Criterion!

You haven't seen Brazil or Life of Brian? Hoskins has small parts in both of those, and both are Criterion. He was also in The Wall, Hook, and Nixon, where he played J. Edgar Hoover. If I had know I could get 300 bucks for Happiness, I would have bought a handful of them at Best Buy 20+ years ago. Used to see it there all the time, remember it because of the cover.

I just found "Happiness" on TH-cam...

How do they decide the spine number on the case? Just curious.

Unfortunately the best version ( turner cut ) of pat Garrett and billy the kid isn’t on the criterion set … oops

I can't believe Happiness is finally getting its day! I never expected this. I currently own a terrible quality homemade version. This is such great news!

Love Herzog's version. He is very underrated as a director. A bit of a madman and has a wanderlust to see every corner of the world. Here's some vampire films to check out: Martin (1977) dir. George Romero, Near dark (1987) dir. Kathryn Bigelow, , Cronos (1993) dir. G. del Toro, The Hunger (1983) dir. Tony Scott, Shadow of the Vampire (2000) a film about making the original Nosferatu but is it real?

Also I can def see why you actually make videos or have for 1 year and you got 3 000 subs. And dont even try to attack me with sub bs, My profile is for my playlists, and talking shit to little bitches such as yourself. You guys make it easy to spot you, and ridicule you.

Doesnt like vampire movies, Is pretentious about movies, uses the word incel, and is scared of them. Looks like we pussy here. We incels got the word for people who say things like incel, pussy. Here puss puss

They're *_both_* terrifying! But the remake gets extra points for its terrific music!

I agree that we need "The Straight Story" given a Criterion release. It is my all-time favorite film. Also 1979's "Saint Jack" with Ben Gazzara. Directed by Peter Bogdanovich. A classic!!

For the record, Happiness has been on TH-cam forever. Very good quality. Yes, I will buy the Criterion version, but who would pay those ridiculous prices for the old dvd when you could watch it for free?

"Happiness" was the most disturbing & unsettling movie I've ever seen, came across a VHS copy of it when I worked at Goodwill in 2004 I hated it for so many reasons, especially the story with Dylan Baker who falls for his young son's friend, I was really disturbed by that scene that I chose never to watch the film ever again.

Oof, Happiness...

This film is perfrection

Great content! I’ll definitely be on the lookout for All of Us Strangers and Happiness (which I saw once years ago). I’m hoping Criterion will release 4K editions of Wild at Heart and Killer of Sheep sometime soon.

Glad I watched "Happiness" back in the day. Not sure I want to go through that again...

Both films are masters of their craft. But for me, I gotta go with the original Nosferatu, with Nosferatu the Vampyre 2nd; although I bet Robert Eggers' updated version this Christmas will end up being 1a 1b 1c. But man, Willem Dafoe in Shadow of the Vampire as Max Schreck is *chef's kiss* I 100% agree with everything you say, tho.

U need the Bruce Lee one

NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!

Amen Bill!

Can’t wait for the Araki and Happiness releases dude. Can’t wait to see the others for the first time too at some point!

The current Eyes Wide Shut on Blu is such a lifeless print. My tiki would be Cook Thief Wife Lover, which has suffered many lousy transfers.

The Straight Story would be perfect for Criterion and it’s a Lynch film I don’t own yet

Been bootlegging happiness on and off for the last few years. Finally, I can see disgrace in 4k

Banger month. I haven't bought any Criterions in a hot while cause they've just been releasing a ton of shit I have no interest in at all or movies I straight up despise. I'll probably grab a couple from this month once the November sale hits.

SO happy Criterion is releasing "All of Us Strangers'! One of my favorites of last year. Really hit close to home. :( Can't wait until the November sale!

Great video Bill! Can't wait to watch Happiness again in 4k instead of 144p lmao. ❤😂

If you're looking for another good vampire film, maybe check out Let The Right One In. It's more a modern setting for a vampire film but it's very much worth checking out and it's quite something to experience (very very graphic though so beware!). It goes quite deep rather than just a surface level "vampire is bad, hero kills it" sort of story.

Dam making love to a PBJ is something else.

I agree with points discussed in this comparison video. Also Werner Herzog has an incredible body of work and Nosferatu is my favorite of all his many films.

You stole the words out of my mouth when you call the 79 Orlock an Incel, those are the thoughts I had when I first heard him speak

NOSFERATU 2024! Poor comments on music. Das Reinghold not a song. Used three times. Popol Vuh great in the score.

It's called Shadow of the vampire it's very good

You should check out William Dafoe s film

Now go watch Shadow of the Vampire ...

"12 angry guys" lol
