Goblin Rocks!

LOVED IT! Always LOVE Goblin & the Redford Theater is such a GREAT venue!

Love the movie & as always the band was awesome!

Excellent show if you haven’t seen GOBLIN you’re missing out!

Great live show

This was a first time I have attended an event of this kind (movie with live band). It was a pretty fun way to take in the movie and see a great band playing at the same time. The band members are all highly skilled and entertaining. It appeared they were all having fun performing and the show went on quite a bit after the movie ended with Goblin continuing on with several more songs.

Superbly Excellent :)

So much care and craft was put into Goblin’s performance. The intimate nature of Simonettis sparse commentary and the band’s precise and reverent execution of one of my favorite of his soundtracks exceeded my expectations. Excellent sound quality in the theater. Great, dedicated backing band performed as a tight unit, obviously a close caring band despite their age differences. Clearly not just a bunch of tour musicians thrown together. I loved this so much. I want everyone to see it.

Seeing Goblin live was a dream come true. Playing the score to Susperia live was incredible. If they come around again im there.

Claudio Simonetti's Goblin - Suspiria Live and old school set was flawless for what it was. The band performed perfectly and brought the many classic horror movie soundtracks to life in a cozy theater.

Great show!

Appreciated being able to see Goblin locally. Previously saw the group on the Cruise to the Edge earlier this year and enjoyed them. Great show and musicianship.

Super cool concept!

Being able to watch Deep Red while it was being live scored was a whole new way to appreciate both the film and the music. This was the last date on the tour, but the band was still energetic, still completely on point for every note. Since it was the last date, I'll talk a little about the content as I won't be spoiling anything for anyone. After the film, the band then played a few songs off the new album, (which is quite good by the way) as well as some recognizable Goblin tunes such as Tenebre, Phenomena, and of course, Suspiria. They then came out and met with fans, which was pretty fantastic of them. I never expect anyone to do that as touring is obviously hard work, and everyone is tired, especially the last gig of the tour, but they came out and were very friendly and gracious and I, as well as many others, appreciated it. Mr. Simonetti has put together a fantastic group of musicians for this incarnation of Goblin. I will certainly see them when they come around again.

BEST way to watch a movie!

We all said it that night that we always want to watch a movie and hear the score live! Great night , great band!

Composer Claudio Simonetti Breaks Down His Scores For ‘Suspiria,’ ‘Deep Red’ and ‘Dawn of the Dead’ Ahead of Nationwide ‘Demons’ Tour

By Todd Gilchrist

For horror fans, Claudio Simonetti is a household name. First a founding member of rock group Goblin, whose work is synonymous with filmmaker Dario Argento ’s genre standard-bearers “Deep Red” and “Suspiria,” a producer and pop artist in his native Italy, and later a lead composer on Argento’s “Tenebre,” Lamberto Bava’s “Demons” and more, Simonetti and his collaborators turned iconoclastic takes on scoring — utilizing the sounds of prog rock and disco — into iconic pieces of film music.

The score to “Demons” was basically you with a drum machine and synthesizers. What has been the process of expanding the sound to accommodate a band performing it live?

“Demons” wasn’t very difficult to adapt — we keep more or less the same sound, but with real instruments. What was difficult was to do was to prepare the entire soundtrack to play live, because there is a lot of music in the film, including songs like Motley Crue’s “Save Our Souls.” But the only two songs I [kept for the live performances] was Billy Idol’s “White Wedding” and Go West’s “We Close Our Eyes.”

Was “Demons” special to you as a solo effort after working in collaboration with the other members of Goblin?

Your earliest incarnation as a part of Goblin was as the band Oliver. What emboldened you to move to London and pursue a career outside of Italy?

I started the band in ’72 with Massimo Morante, the guitar player, who I’m sorry to say passed away last year. I was doing military service, but I composed the entire “Cherry Five” album with him, and then we called bass player Fabio Pignatelli, and then the drummer, Carlo Bordini. We decided to go with these demos to London, but it was very difficult because we were an Italian band. It’s like if an Englishman came to Italy to make pizza! But thanks to my father [Enrico Simonetti], who was a very popular artist in Italy, he presented us to Cinevox Records, who are big publishers of music from films. So Carlo Bixio, the director of the label said “let’s do the album,” and we started to record the album on the studio. But during this period, Dario Argento came to Carlo and said, “I have this new film ‘Deep Red,’ but I would like a famous rock band to do the music… why we don’t call Pink Floyd, Genesis, or Deep Purple?” And the producer [recognized] it would be very hard to contact these bands — and very expensive. So he said to Dario, “I’m producing an Italian band, maybe you would like them? They play gothic rock and prog.” So Dario came to the studio where we were recording, and he loved our music. It was an incredible coincidence, and we were very lucky.

There are conflicting reports about how much time you were given for the score for “Deep Red.” How long were you given and what was the track that made you confident that you could compose the whole thing?

We didn’t have much time to write the soundtrack because the film was released a month and a half after we recorded it. The original composer of “Deep Red” was Giorgio Gaslini, a very good musician, but Gaslini left the film — he had a problem with Dario — so Dario came to the studio and said, “you have to finish the film, but we are missing the main themes.” We had never composed anything for films, and I was the oldest [member of the band,] 22 years old. So we went to my house and I had a little studio in the basement and recorded the demo of “Deep Red.” The next day, Dario listened to it and said it’s good. I never expected it to be a big success. But also when we were recording the “Deep Red” soundtrack, we also were recording the Oliver studio album, and that’s why the record label decided to change the name of our band to separate the projects. So they changed the name of Oliver to Cherry Five — I still don’t know why — and they chose the name of Goblin, which is a beautiful name. And after the film was released, in 10 months we sold one million copies of the album.

Now when I do soundtracks, I see the film and I write music for every scene with a computer. In the seventies, we preferred to record separate tracks — we did “Deep Red,” “Mad Puppet,” “Death Dies” like an album, and afterward Dario and the editor would put the music where they needed. “Suspiria” was different, because when we started “Deep Red,” the film was edited and completely done. On “Suspiria,” Dario contacted us before he shot the film and he asked us to write something. We did, but I don’t like to read scripts — it’s like if you read a book and then you go to see the movie of the book — it’s different in your mind. So we wrote music that Dario used on set to inspire the actors, but when we saw the finished film, the music was not good. So we started again from the beginning with music that’s completely different from what we wrote before. The strange thing is that all of the tapes of the demos disappeared. Maybe it was the witches — they didn’t like it so they destroyed it. But we had almost two months in studio doing experimental music where we used instruments like the bouzouki, the Indian tabla, and I used a Moog synthesizer for the first time. I think that “Suspiria” is the most important soundtrack we made. “Suspiria” is actually is the real Goblin style, because in “Deep Red” we play like a prog rock band.

How did it set a template for your scores after that?

I think that every film we made as the Goblin, and also I made by myself, are completely different. If you listen to the scores for “Deep Red,” “Suspiria” and “Dawn of the Dead,” you’d think they’re by three different bands because the sound of each one is completely different. “Dawn of the Dead,” we had a lot of fun recording because it’s the greatest zombie movie in history, for me, and we played rock, bossa nova and horror themes. George Romero used library music [for his cut], but because Dario Argento was the distributor of the film in Europe, he cut 15 or 20 minutes out of the film and changed the music. When it was redistributed in the States with the new version, it was a big successful soundtrack and movie. But we never met George Romero! I only met Romero one year before he passed away. But I think he appreciated a lot of our music — even if he never called us for anything else.

Was it an easy transition to start producing disco after launching your career as part of a prog rock band making film scores?

Did your work producing disco influence the decision to make the main theme to “Tenebre” so disco heavy?

Dario said “I want you guys to do my film,” but we couldn’t the use name Goblin because it was used by the bass player, Fabio Pignatelli, with different guys who signed a contract with the label. So we used our three names, Simonetti, Morante and Pignatelli, to write the music without our drummer. And it was 1982, so I said, why we don’t do something with rock and disco using synthesizers and drum machines and a vocoder? We started to record this kind of music, and it was a great decision because I love the “Tenebre” soundtrack, mixing rock and dance.

Whether the movie is great or not, what have you figured out over the years that makes a score resonate with audiences and endure?

You’d have to ask to the audience, because I don’t know. I just write the music. Of course, it’s also technical work, so after I’ve made also almost 70 films, I know more or less now what kind of music would be good for the film. But I don’t know why some songs are powerful. Maybe it’s thanks to the film — “Suspiria,” “Deep Red” and “Tenebre” are very good films, and the impact with the images and the music is strong. But I also have many films that I wrote music I love for, but they were not successful films — why, I don’t know. Sometimes you see bad films with good music, and you don’t listen for it. But I’ve seen many good films with bad music. I always say, why did you use this music? It would be better with better music!

You’ve worked with all these horror luminaries. Which of these partnerships do feel were the most fruitful?

My favorite director is Dario Argento, because Dario is involved in the music. But I worked with many other directors that sometimes I never met — I didn’t have a contact with Umberto Lenzi or Lucio Fulci. But Ruggero Deodato was one of my favorite directors, as a person, because he was really funny. I was really upset when he passed away in May of this year; I did five films with Ruggero.

Is there a score that you would love most to do live that you have not had the opportunity to do? Is there one that would be the most difficult?

It’s “Demons.” “Deep Red” was easy because we played and used the same instruments as a classic quartet, and the same with “Suspiria.” “Demons” was electronic music and I had to readapt it for the band. And also compared to other soundtracks we play live, we do a lot of improvisation. But we like it because many scenes are impossible to recreate with the original soundtrack, so we extract the original one and do something new.

‘The First Omen’ Star Nell Tiger Free Pays Tribute to 1981’s ‘Possession’ Through Physical Horror [Interview]

Nell Tiger Free  ( “Servant” ) finds herself embroiled in a terrifying conspiracy as American novitiate Margaret Daino in  The First Omen , which 20th Century Studios will unleash in theaters on April 5 .

The prequel to  The Omen  is directed by  Arkasha Stevenson , based on characters created by David Seltzer ( The Omen ), with a story by Ben Jacoby (“Bleed”) and a screenplay by Tim Smith & Arkasha Stevenson and Keith Thomas ( Firestarter ).

The First Omen  sees the shy Margaret sent to Rome in 1971 and explores the events surrounding the birth of the Antichrist. Ahead of the film’s release, Bloody Disgusting spoke with actor Nell Tiger Free about the film and the tribute she pays to 1981’s  Possession   with an impressive physical performance.

In  The First Omen , Margaret finds herself drawn to an isolated young woman, Carlita ( Nicole Sorace ). In her bid to comfort and befriend the young girl, Margaret notices something may be deeply amiss at her new convent, and her superiors may have sinister designs on the young girls within the Church. It falls to the shy novitiate to attempt to thwart it. In other words, The First Omen taps into controversial themes of sexual abuse within the Church, something that Arkasha Stevenson and Nell Tiger Free took great care in approaching.

“We had very frank, open conversations about it,” Free explains. “Nothing was off the table as far as things to discuss with me and Arkasha. There was no limit to what she and I would talk about in every walk of life and sense of life. It found its way into our conversation very naturally because, politically, at the time, there were some serious things going on, and it just very naturally found its way into the conversation. We spoke through these things and worked out what we were both comfortable with and what we were both comfortable with being in this film and showing.

“I never for a second worried that anything was going to be gratuitous or that anything was going to be there for the sake of it. At the end of the day, this is a horror film. It’s here to entertain. It’s here for people to enjoy. We’re not trying to spoon-feed you any sort of message or anything, but it is an exploration of assault, and it is an exploration of being in control of your own body. Thematically, these things just made sense with the story that we were telling. And we tried to tell it in a way that is something that is not there to shock or offend. It’s not there for those reasons. It’s there because it makes sense for the story. Because Arkasha and I were working it out together, there was never a moment where I felt like I was pushed too far or felt uncomfortable, not for a second, because we wanted to tell the story. We wanted to tell it right.”

When asked whether she had a pre-existing relationship with the franchise before taking on the role, Nell Tiger Free reveals she’s a massive horror fan.

She tells us, “I loved the original. I’ve seen it countless times. I’m a big horror buff, so naturally,  The Omen  would be in my wheelhouse of things that I love to watch. Coincidentally, it was also something that I absolutely enjoyed performing. So it was just an all-around lovely full circle moment for me.”

The actor’s horror fandom is never more apparent than in a scene that sees Margaret grappling with an unseen force, resulting in a daunting physical performance that pays tribute to Isabelle Adjani ‘s unforgettable tunnel scene in Andrzej Zulawski’s  Possession . Even more impressive is that this stunning moment took only two takes.

“Oh my God, I could not tell you for all the money in the world what was going through my mind in that sequence,” Free says of her mindset during this performance. “I honestly couldn’t. We didn’t have any rehearsals, and we didn’t choreograph it or do anything like that. We had  Possession as a reference, which was a brilliant reference, and we just went for it. If memory serves, it was two takes. I’d like to dispel any rumors that I was on sort of a pulley device or CGI. There’s none of that .

“It was just 4:00 AM somewhere in Northern Italy, and we were all deranged and halfway through shooting anyway, and it just happened. Do I know if it could happen again? I don’t know. I don’t know. But I’m lucky enough that Arkasha created an environment where I just wanted to push myself as hard as I possibly could for her. It was an exhausting thing to perform, but it was such a satisfying exhaustion. Even though it was a very difficult thing to do, I just have nothing but really, really fond memories of performing at that moment. I’m just happy that it seems to be being received well and that just means the world. So yeah, I’m grateful people are happy to watch this weird, freaky thing that we decided to do.”

More than just delivering a powerful horror moment on screen, playing Margaret helped Nell Tiger Free focus less on vanity and more on her performance. The actor encourages everyone to tap into their inner Adjani, too.

“This film has helped me so much because there is not a lot of opportunity for beauty in this movie, in the typical sense,” she explains. “ That was a beautiful thing in itself; it was like the dance that we were talking about, that was an opportunity to tap into the ugliest, most brutalist, intense, animalistic side of myself and show it to the world. It felt amazing and liberating, as well as incredibly feminist and cathartic. I would implore you to go home and do it in the mirror because I’ve been telling people this.

“You should honestly give it a go. It feels amazing.”
