Ive been a big fan of Lynns since I first saw her in The Crazies, says writer/director Jose Prendes. There is this ethereal beauty to her that makes her completely magnetic and you cant help but keep your eyes firmly glued to her whenever shes on screen. Signing Lynn onto the picture has completed a lifelong dream of mine to not only meet this iconic actress, but work with her as well. And the fact that shes doing it because she loved the script and wanted to work with someone who admires her films, means more to me than she could ever imagine.
Also the films composer has been locked in and the sinister score will be provided by newcomer Graham Denman, who is looking to put a unique spin on things musically.
Jose has been a close friend of mine for many years and I couldnt be more excited to have such a big opportunity, working on this film with him. With this score, I plan on delivering something in the vein of John Carpenters early stuff and especially Johnny Greenwoods score for There Will Be Blood, say Denman. I like using random noises that most people overlook and stretching them out, playing with them, putting them in the background like this ominous thing buried beneath the music. I want this to be a one of a kind score. I really hope you all dig it.
The Haunting of Whaley House goes into production on March 4th for an expected July 2012 release. Stay connected on the Facebook fanpage for daily updates and info.
