Creating well-crafted and respected Horror Scores.

The fine folks at WYRD Features are set to unleash yet another awesome documentary. I’ve never seen my music used in conjunction with so much blood.
I like it.

DEAD HOUSE is proud to be in the good company of such talented folks as the staff of Model Monster Review.

I’m interviewed over at ALTERNATIVE CINEMA about creating the mad retro musikkness for Stephen Romano’s SHOCK FESTIVAL DVD set.

Morgue Art Films have birthed the first teaser for the soon-to-be-classic horror/comedy WONTON BABY! Step away from the screen or you might get spattered with red…

Won Ton Baby! Teaser Trailer

I approached the score as THE BLUES BROTHERS meets PHANTOM OF THE PARADISE.
Dig it.

The 22 year wait is over! The official trailer for SLIME CITY MASSACRE, Greg Lamberson’s long awaited sequel to his 1988 splatter-classsic SLIME CITY is up at Fangoria, Dread Central, Bloody-Disgusting etc.
But, you lucky slimeheads can see it right here:

I truly enjoyed composing the music for this film. It was an honor to be part of something that has two decades of history, and fans around the world. Not to mention it was a real challenge to deliver something that worked both as a retro style synthesizer AND a modern symphonic score.

Here is the first trailer from 77 Pictures new werewolf/coming of age film, BEFORE 12
I chose a melancholy fusion of cello & synth to match the dark & brooding visuals.

Another loss to the music world today. CARNIVORE were ahead of their time, and TYPE O NEGATIVE actually made me weep more than once. I will miss your talent, integrity, intelligence & wicked sense of humor. Farewell Peter.

So, in honor of the release of Stephan Romano’s SHOCK FESTIVAL DVD, I’ve decided to provide 100 lucky downloaders a link to ALL of the music I wrote for the DVD collection…FREE!
Yep, free. All the euro-sleeze jazz, all the cheap cannibal synth, all the bombastic sword and sandal, all the creeptastic-Poe-infused melancholy, and bad-ass bass pimpin’ funk you could ever want.

HERE is the download link, it’s good for the next 7 days or 100 downloads.

Enjoy-
