Music reviews for Murder Loves Killers Too have been really positive so far… reviews for the movie in general have been great! It’s nice that people have seemed to get the sense of humor and homages to American Slasher classics as well as the Italian Gialli.

My many thanks to Drew Barnhardt for the being eternal encyclopedia of movies and soundtracks. So many great ideas and references that led to creating this score that is a little Harry Manfredini, a little Fancesco De Masi, a little John Williams (i’m referring to 1978’s The Fury, not Indiana Jones), mixed with a little John Carpenter, Goblin, The New York Dolls, Paul Williams and hopefully a fair amount of my own sound to glue it all together.

“The score is a rich and complex piece.” - Jay Slater, The Dark Side Magazine

“a perfectly constructed score that is perhaps one of the most diverse, and high quality soundtracks in low budget filmmaking. The accomplished composer has worked in elements from the Italian giallo films of the 70’s, synth based tracks from the 80’s slasher craze, and overlaid it all with orchestral stabs, sparse piano elements, and even some heavy fuckin’ metal. Sweet.” - Brutal as Hell

“an aural gift for viewers as the rock music pounds during party scenes and the cell phone ring moves from background noise to forefront in the films soundtrack.” - Michael Ross Allen, 28 Days Later Analysis
