[Scoopicman]

The movie has been making the rounds at festivals. Now that it has premiered, I can finally share some cues from it.

Totally rad. Major props to you. Sounds great!

 

[Scoopicman]

Thanks, De Jager! I appreciate you checking it out.

Of course! I follow the filmmakers who made this movie this as well as half of the other up and coming filmmakers. Gotta keep up with the competition! (Plus I love to collaborate). They were smart in investing in a very talented illustrator for their one sheet. It's generating interest in itself.

Yeah, I'm impressed with some of their choices. They aren't trying to be something they're not. They portray the movie for what it is - a bloody, gratuitous slasher flick! I like the voice over on the trailer. This would have fit perfectly in Rodriquez' GRINDHOUSE double feature.

I didn't have anything to do with the movie, other than the score, and to offer some early opinions. When I heard that Brian (one of the producers) was shooting a slasher movie, I offered to score it for free. I'm a big fan of those kind of soundtracks - HALLOWEEN, PHANTASM, THE BURNING, IT FOLLOWS, etc. Bless their hearts; they did throw me some bones!

That's great to hear! I don't know them personally but I do enjoy a fun slasher flick. I'll definitely be checking it out. You doing any other movie projects right now?

This is so cool. As a big fan of 70s horror flicks your soundtrack is a great homage.

I'll be helping a friend shoot her ghost short, and Brian wants me to score a doc he's working on.

Very Gorey. Oo Maybe it's because I was eating. xD

My musical DNA is pretty much rooted in 70's and 80's genre scores. Thanks for listening!

Thanks.

Btw, Marc, great job with your music. Very cool that you play all those guitars and the viola. I really like a piece you did, called "The Doomed and Infected." Love the work in this video, as well. You are the real deal!
