"The Night House” is not your average horror film… as the widow of a suicide victim slowly unravels his dark past, it is composer Ben Lovett’s creepy, atmospheric music that keeps us on edge."
— Variety
"The conjuring of spectral presences out of structural beams and negative space — which may or may not be products of Beth’s feverish imagination — is especially effective. Likewise Ben Lovett’s obsessively churning score."
— Hollywood Reporter
The Night House
[Vinyl]
Death Waltz Recording Co., in partnership with Lakeshore Records, are proud to present Ben Lovett’s haunting score to the Searchlight film THE NIGHT HOUSE.
Pressed on 140g clear vinyl, housed in textured board sleeve, with exclusive insert. limited to 500 numbered copies.
Lovett creates a mix of emotional melodies and unsettling tonalities that drive the tension as the audience slips deeper and deeper into Beth’s mysteries. Lovett anchors the score with a beautiful and warm theme on low strings, together with a counterpoint of lonely and echoing solo piano, acting as a conduit for the more uncomfortable soundscapes introduced. Pulsating electronics layered over high string music box melodies grab the score’s fabric and draw out the intensity until the final moments of euphoria. — Charlie Brigden
