Film Fest Gent, Videodroom 2026: “Nosferatu”

*Circuit des Yeux, Nosferatu*

Dive into the haunting world of Fritz W. Murnau’s 1922 silent‑era horror masterpiece, Nosferatu. Running 94 minutes, the film follows Count Orlok (Max Schreck) as he lures his unsuspecting victims into his shadowy Transylvanian castle, an uncanny and enduring re‑interpretation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula that remains the definitive Dracula on screen over a century later.

Indulge in a brand‑new, otherworldly experience as acclaimed live‑score duo Circuit des Yeux, the avant‑garde artist group led by Chicago‑based composer Haley Fohr, team up with Alan Sparhawk of indie legends Low. Together they deliver a hypnotic, haunting soundtrack, blending a four‑octave vocal range, experimental folk, and maximalist compositions that fuse genre and atmosphere. Their music will surround the film using Club Wintercircus’s immersive sound system, creating a one‑of‑a‑kind cinematic and sonic journey.

Circuit des Yeux, founded in 2007 and released on labels such as Thrill Jockey, Matador, and Drag City, has previously presented the silent classic Salomé at Videodroom 2019. The duo returns to the studio to re‑imagine Nosferatu, bringing a fresh, live‑instrumental narration to the iconic silent horror film. Enjoy this unforgettable concert film experience featuring the visceral performance of Max Schreck, with background credit to a legacy of genius behind the camera: director Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau, writer Henrik Galeen, producers Albin Grau and Enrico Dieckmann, and cinematographers Günther Krampf and Fritz Arno Wagner.
