Haunted Melodies with Lalo Schifrin

Haunted Melodies with Lalo Scifrin (2013)

*** (out of 4)

This thirteen-minute interview with composer Lalo Scifrin can be found on the Shout Factory! Blu-ray of THE AMITYVILLE HORROR. While the featurette isn't anything ground-breaking, fans of the film or the composer should at least have a fun time with it as he talks about getting the job on COOL HAND Luke and then he starts to talk about THE AMITYVILLE HORROR. He really doesn't go into great details about anything but he talks about what he wanted out of the film as well as its original premiere. From here he talks about working on the sequel and how easy it was since he basically already had the music from the first film and just needed to add it to new scenes.
