Nosferatu Review Roundup Gothic Horror Classic

NOSFERATU Gets Digital Release Next Week

If you’re one of the many South Africans that were disappointed you couldn’t watch NOSFERATU in cinemas because it didn’t get a local release, don’t worry. You’ll be able to watch the horror film very soon as it lands on digital platforms next week.

NOSFERATU released in cinemas on 25 December and was one of the biggest movies of 2024. Sadly, South African cinemas decided to skip it and offer Mufasa instead. The country is expected to get its own delayed launch of the film this week as it opens in very select cinemas on 17 January.

If you can’t find a cinema in South Africa to watch NOSFERATU in, I don’t blame you. The release schedule is incredibly limited. So much so that some regions don’t even have a single location to book tickets at. The bookings are also only available up until 23 January.

Thankfully, NOSFERATU is expected to release digitally on 21 January. While Focus Features has not announced the release date directly, the date comes from When to Stream, a very reliable and accurate source for entertainment release dates.

The release date aligns with the recent history of cinema releases coming out digitally around a month after launch. If the date is correct, you’ll be able to stream NOSFERATU on all major digital platforms including Apple TV, Prime Video, and Google Play Movies.

The source does warn that this date may be subject to change. However, usually this isn’t the case.

NOSFERATU did quite well during its time in cinemas. The film had a budget of $51 million and earned $135 million during its release month. Ticket sales have likely dropped drastically due to the new year and holiday season ending. This has likely led to the digital release taking place so early.
