Silence! - The Musical
A few months ago there was an off-Broadway musical for Edward Scissorhands which was, by all accounts, a pleasant enough concept but ultimately harmless. Silence! The Musical, based on Silence of the Lambs, however, seems...dangerous.
Why, no further proof is needed than the song linked to here. Warning, goatlings, it features elements of terror, scatalogical filth, cuss words and...an infectious tune - It clicks the link or it gets the hose again - Put the !^@*! Lotion in the Basket.
Need more? Though like Dr. Lecter and Clarice we should follow the simple rule of quid pro quo, we give you one more - Quid Pro Quo.
I think the Horror Department will be planning an outing to this particular show no matter how many "offs" they append to the word Broadway.
Oh, Fringe Festival, you never fail to delight. You never fail to make us feel as if the world of horror movies is a vast, seething, rippling fertile garden box of the richest soil from which the most beautiful musical bloodflowers might rise.
Oh Todd...I'm sure you know what thoughts THIS brings up...
They'll make a musical out of anything these days...Sometimes it turns out all right, but I can't imagine what this will be like.
Hello,
I know this is unrelated to this post, but I would love to know the music/score behind the
ad for "Long Live Cool" on AMCtv this month of August...Its the score when various clips
from great movies are shown in the ad...i would really really love to know any info about
the score itself...Many thanks for your help
Caw, Cool Guy, that song is called "Natural One" by Folk Implosion. It was on the soundtrack for Kids, I think. It kind of has a horror movie bass line!
Jenne, those goofy song links might give some sense of what it's like, but I reckon we'll have to see it for the full effect.
Thanks for taking the time to comment
i have to agree. today they will make a musical out of anything that will make money. ive alawys been interested it evil dead: the musical, just wondering what that would be like.
I'll try listening to them. :)
It would be nice if someone would come up with an original idea for a Broadway show every now and then. (Not that I should really talk, everything I want to see on Broadway is a knockoff of something somebody else thought up.)
Joe, I have seen Evil Dead: The Musical, and it is everything you could have ever wanted and more... Hysterically funny, horribly gory, and more or less true to 'plot'. Oh, and the songs are catchy too! I'm not sure if it's still in theaters (I saw it in NYC), but if you get a chance I highly recommend it.
thanks ashley, sounds great, ill have to look into it.
