One of the most iconic masterpieces in cinema history, THE CABINET OF DR CALIGARI shook filmgoers worldwide and changed the direction of the art form. Now presented in a definitive restoration for its 95th anniversary, the film’s chilling, radically expressionist vision is set to grip audiences again. Eureka Entertainment will be releasing the film in cinemas around the UK & Eire and on DVD & Blu-ray, late summer 2014. More details to follow, next month

Amazing news. Glad I held off on DVD now. Cannot wait.

Oh my god oh my god oh my god!

Hope there's a steelbook too

Will pick this up, love this film.

A steelbook of this would be glorious beside Metropolis.

*PREACHER* · 05-14-2014, 02:04 PM

Awesome news...indeed!!!

thewerepuppygrr · 05-14-2014, 02:05 PM

Marvellous - definitely needs a steel.

Craig666 · 05-14-2014, 02:08 PM

Amazing film. This and Nosferatu are two of my favourites from the silent era. Tim Burton was definitely influenced by this classic film.

Mister Snoops · 05-14-2014, 05:28 PM

I bet there will be one. Not seen a MOC steelbook I wanted since Nosferatu.

I think I would have bought the German release if we hadn't had one, so this is fantastic news. The restoration looks fantastic from the bits I've seen on the featurette:

Yes. I enjoyed his Mabuse commentaries immensley.

Wireduck1 · 06-05-2014, 07:03 PM

I have preordered 'Faust' but not this one yet because surely this title 'must' have a steelbook release ???

jacksparrow900 · 06-16-2014, 04:15 PM

I'm excited all these German titles are getting blu ray releases. I'm still waiting for The Bat,Seven Footprints To Satan and The Last Warning to finally get proper releases.

The Amazon listing doesn't mention a region lock. Dare I hope that this might be a release I can play in the states, unlike the other releases in this series? Probably not, darn it.

Region B. The only recent region free MoC disc I know of is Computer Chess.

Just get a multi region player and save yourself the heartache with each new batch of UK Blu-ray announcements
