Okay so did anyone else have a hard time getting over the hair? Especially the guy who walks funny! His hair is the best. But even Siegfried's is quite... abundant

Different times, different styles. They just weren't as conservative as, say, Lady Gaga or Russell Brand.

OMG I watched it this weekend and I had the same reaction over the hair. Plus, in b&w it doesn't exactly make him look young.

Jamie Lee Curtis survived Halloween,a Fog, Prom Night and Terror Train & now she can't poop!

Paul Richter is wearing a wig throughout the film, as I believe most of the cast.
He has a part in the film "Dr. Mabuse,Der Spieler" and his hair is slicked back, he actually was a very handsome man.

And Kino on video is planning to release a restored and tinted edition of the "Die Nibelungen" sometime in November of 2012. Looking forward to it.

Who's the one who walks funny?

I actually loved Siegfried's hair because it was so odd. It stuck out way far horizontally in the back.

The hair was all crazy, and how about those giant metal bird hats?
The giant pigtails coming out of Kriemhild's forehead was my favorite coif.
