Remastered “Nosferatu” Coming Soon!

Horror fans are going to love the newly remastered Blu-Ray edition of F.W. Murnau’s classic Nosferatu.

Filmed in 1921, the film borrowed…

heavily from Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel, Dracula without permission… All known prints and negatives were destroyed under the terms of settlement of a lawsuit by Bram Stoker’s widow. However, the film would subsequently surface in other countries…

and will soon be available for collectors.



Hercules: The Rock & Steranko

The picture above is the latest in a series of set photos that Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has shared from location filming of Hercules: The Thracian Wars.  If you’d like to see the other photos, Coming Soon has them.

Set for a July 14, 2014 release, Hercules: The Thracian Wars is directed by Brett Ratner and based on Radical Comics series of the same name.

If Johnson’s photo as Hercules seems familiar, you probably remember seeing this version of Steranko’s cover prelim for Radical Comics or this Steranko prelim or perhaps Steranko’s finished cover.

Lost 3 Stooges Film Found!

Pictured above is a frame from Hello Pop an early two-color short that featured Ted Healy and The Three Stooges.  No prints of Hello Pop exist. 

Hello Pop along with other early films (the most famous being Todd Browning’s London After Midnight starring Lon Chaney) were lost forever because of a vault fire at the Culver City studio.  

Hello Pop was the only film featuring The Three Stooges that no longer existed.

That is until a private film collector in Australia turned up a copy!  Soon collectors worldwide will be able to see and add Hello Pop to their movie collections.

Now if someone could just find a print of London After Midnight.

Thanks and a nyuk-nyuk-nyuk to the NY Daily Post.
