I often will give moderate hard questions and sometimes easy questions, but here is a hard one, I think? Hard to say with the experts around here. I am a composer who is credit with composing only one film. A genre film It was a low budget horror film made in the early 70's that was distributed by a company who used this as a follow-up to another film which they did very good with a year before that has become a cult classic. This company at that time was great with their advertising campaigns. WHO AM I?
No that's not the answer, good guess DR PHIBES RISES AGAIN-Another hint- This is a very low budget independent film made in America, the film that precede this one from the company was Notorious, but very popular and was remade a few years back. The composer and film we are looking for had a trendy type of title for the 70's.
To make this clearer when I said follow-up not in story or sequel, just the technique the film distributor used their campaign for another horror film since they were very successful with the first one.
TO SBD-That was the first film LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT-72- DAVID HESS- HALLMARK FILMS, but the answer is the composer of the next film HALLMARK released in 73, which back then often was on a double bill with HOUSE.HINT-everybody is off the rocker.
