Carl Theodor Dreyers Vampyr (1932) is a haunting early sound horror classic that dissolves the line between dream and nightmare. Loosely based on Sheridan Le Fanus Carmilla, it follows a young traveler who arrives at a shadow-filled village cursed by vampirism, where time, space, and reality unravel. Celebrated for its eerie, dreamlike imagery and Gothic atmosphere, Vampyr stands as one of the most influential works of European horror cinema.

Eureka - Masters of Cinema

The first foray into sound filmmaking by one of cinemas pivotal artists, Vampyr remains a cornerstone work of the horror genre. The dreamlike tale of an occult-obsessed students visit to a small French village, as he is drawn into the unsettling mystery around a stricken familys struggle with malevolent forces, remains an unparalleled evocation of the uncanny.

Adapting the haunted stories of Sheridan Le Fanu, Dreyers ceaseless innovation delivers a tour-de-force of supernatural phantasmagoria and creeping unease, via audacious camerawork and sound design.

Presented from an all-new 2K restoration by the Danish Film Institute, supported by the MEDIA program Creative Europe, and taking more than a decade to complete materials from several European archives (including the BFI, CNC and DFI) have been meticulously scanned and assessed to create the highest quality and most faithful version of Vampyr possible. Now unveiled for the films 90th anniversary, one of the most visually and aurally distinctive horror films ever made finally comes to Blu-ray in the UK, in a definitive incarnation that achieves the full experience Dreyer intended audiences to have.
