I am credited with scoring one film and it was a genre film. However it was a very popular genre film in which a sequel was made. Film was released at the beginning of the 80's- hint- beware of those flying objects. WHO AM I?
Answer: who is Malcom Seagrave? Or is it Fred Myrow? Although Myrow did score at least another genre film?

I am one of the great melodic film composers of the modern age, having scored well over a 100 films so far I have so far not touch genre films much ; However one I did was a film that was very very popular and belongs to a very popular franchise in recent genre history. I am also doing another very popular genre theme now WHO AM I- This might be the easiest question I have had on this thread so far.
Please don't say Desplat. He is all fancy schmancy orchestrations more than melody. However, I respect your opinion and your taste Mr. Dan. 
I believe you were alluding to The Twilight Saga and the upcoming Godzilla flick.
Incidentally, Mr. Pope is a fabulous orchestrator as well as a fine composer.

I will be very surprised if our friend ADVISE AND CONSENT does not get this answer. For anyone who knew a bit about horror films in the late 70's and 80's should have no trouble getting this. It was an era when every week it look like another genre film was opening and doing solid business. This one right in the middle of that streak did fine business.
Interesting question Mr. Dan. But just to be sure, are we talking about the end of the seventies to the end of the eighties?

What I meant was there was a period from1980 through 82, where most genre films were eating up the top 20 on variety 's charts.The genre films of low to moderate budgets were just making money left and right-ALLIGATOR,ZOMBIE, BOGEY MAN,FADE TO BLACK,MOTHER'S DAY,SCANNERS, BLOOD BEACH,FEAR NO EVIL,MANIAC,FINAL EXAM,THE HOWLING,THE FOG,FRIDAY THE 13TH,HALLOWEEN NO 2 etc etc Ironically some of the genre films that didn't do as well came from the majors[THE THING, WOLFEN, MY BLOODY VALENTINE,, THE HAND ETC]

HINT- Some people who don't know much about this topic will often get the wrong location in the world for this subject at hand, confusing it will another subject at hand. But both subjects sadly are not human's favorite subjects to deal with.

hint- Burt Reynolds.
Answer: This is only a hunch Mr. Dan, but I suspect that it has to do with ALLIGATORS.... not to be confused with crocodiles.

Correct, you got it, IRVING GERTZ- THE ALLIGATOR PEOPLE-59- CRAIG HUNDLEY-ALLIGATOR-80-STONEGROUND- DRACULA 72-72- SONG, ALLIGATOR MAN. as we know some people confuse the alligator with the crocodile. GATOR-76- was the Burt Reynolds film.

She is a well known singer who sang the love theme from this horror mystery made in the late 70's, that was successful. Might very well be her only association with genre films in her long career. Who is she and what is the film? Figuring her personality she is probably afraid of genre films.
