Screamworks Records presents a truly eerie soundtrack album featuring Michael Wandmacher’s original score from the sequel to the 2010 surprise horror hit The Last Exorcism, produced by Hostel director Eli Roth and starring MTV Award nominee Ashley Bell as young Nell Sweetzer who reecounters the evil that possessed her in the first film.

Wandmacher, who is no stranger to the horror genre after effective scores for films such as Piranha and My Bloody Valentine, evokes mystery with dark themes and vocal effects while anxiety and sheer terror is conveyed with deeply textured electronics, prepared piano and orchestral avant garde writing. The album is released digitally online and on CD co-inciding with the theatrical release of the film in United Kingdom and Germany.

The acclaimed score for The Orphanage won Spanish composer Fernando Velázquez a lot of fans around the world, and his current score for Orphanage director J. A. Bayona’s The Impossible has even more established the composer as one of the most talented film composers of his generation. MovieScore Media has released two of his previous scores, the large orchestral score for Shiver and the chamber jazz score for Garbo: The Spy. We are now proud to – after more than four years of preparations – present the world premiere recording of his score for Sexykiller, the Spanish horror action comedy from 2008 on our Screamworks label. Without any doubt, this is Velázquez’s most entertaining score to date, featuring his trademark big orchestral voice in conjunction with some surprising stylistic elements, heard specifically in the opening track. Reflecting the hilarious genre mix of the movie, the score features a lot of action writing, über-romantic love themes and spine-chilling horror orchestrations.

Celebrating the 10th anniversary of the 2003 cult movie Beyond Re-Animator, Screamworks Records releases the world premiere recording of Spanish composer Xavier Capellas’ exciting orchestral score for the film. The score follows in the tradition (and quotes the original Re-Animator theme) of Richard Band, giving the low-budget horror comedy a full-grown symphonic backdrop for the absurd on-screen action.

Adding a freshness to the old-fashioned orchestral writing, Capellas sometimes injectsmomentum and a modern influences through the means of drum loops, but the score is at heart an entertaining horror score that plays comedy straight and has a lot of orchestral suspense and action to offer.

Released world-wide in theatres and on DVD in 2009, Marcel Sarmiento’s Deadgirl tells the story about two high school boys who discover an imprisoned woman who cannot die. The novel plot receives an inspired musical treatment courtesy of Joseph Bauer, a talented film composer who has penned several impressive low budget horror scores for titles such as Brutal and Blackwater Valley Exorcism, as well as the current holiday comedy Elf-Man. Bauer always brings a sense of sophistication to the films he scores: an example in the score for Deadgirl are the fine themes and unexpected melodic elements, such as the brief but charming ‘Makeover Waltz’. The score album features additional music and sound design by Phillip Blackford.

Screamworks Records proudly presents one of the most impressive genre scores we’ve heard recently: the large orchestral score for the original Chiller movie, Dead Souls, an adaptation of the Michael Laimo novel starring Bill Moseley and Jesse James. Composers Matthew Llewellyn and Jonathan Bartz (both scoring team members on several Brian Tyler scores including The Expendables 2 and Final Destination 5) has created a wonderfully old-school horror score that pays tribute, above all, to Bernard Herrmann but also more modern scoring icons such as Alan Silvestri (the action writing) and John Williams (the romantic material).

Featuring an exquisite performance by the Slovak National Symphony Orchestra conducted by film music veteran Allan Wilson, the score is filled with exciting setpieces and a refreshingly straight-forward approach to the on-screen action. Llewellyn and Bartz never resort to the now so common middle of the road aleatoric techniques in this score; music remains highly interesting and entertaining throughout and sometimes truly complex harmonically (‘Unearthing the Past’ a highlight in this respect).

Described by Shock Horror Magazine as “shockingly good” and by Horrorhound Magazine as “superbly suspenseful, smart, sexy and grisly”, UK horror film Truth or Dare (known as Truth or Die in the USA) features a dark and mesmerizing score by newcomer Richard Pryn. Truth or Dare is his first major feature film where he showcases an intense and adrenaline-pumping style where extremely dark sonorities meet elements of orchestral avant garde, industrial distortion (Pryn achieved a distinction in electric guitar performance at the ACM in Guildford!) and unsettling harmonic textures. Truth or Dare is a modern horror score with diverse elements and one that keeps its audience on the edge of its seats – just like a horror score is supposed to!
