Puppet Master X: Axis Rising - The Evil Clergyman

La-La Land Records presents two exciting original scores from acclaimed composer Richard Band (RE-ANIMATOR, FROM BEYOND, THE HOUSE ON SORORITY ROW) -- the tenth installment in the fan-favorite PUPPET MASTER franchise, PUPPET MASTER X: AXIS RISING, starring Kip Canyon and Jean Louise O'Sullivan and THE EVIL CLERGYMAN, starring Jeffrey Combs, Barbara Crampton and David Gale, both directed by Charles Band. With PUPPETMASTER X: AXIS RISING, composer Band unleashes a rich arsenal of militaristic action, thrills and drama – a big musical backdrop for this saga of diminutive warriors. For THE EVIL CLERGYMAN, a Lovecraftian horror short starring the Combs/Crampton/Gale trio from RE-ANIMATOR (originally made for the lost Empire Pictures PULSEPOUNDERS anthology feature), Band examines the very nature of our darkest and most lustful impulses. When a VHS workprint of CLERGYMAN was discovered a few years ago, Band recorded an amazing score for the short film – a hauntingly beautiful and romantic piece of work that adds a soulful and disturbing dimension to the short's ghastly proceedings. Produced by Richard Band and Matt Verboys, and mastered by James Nelson, this special release of 2000 units features exclusive, in-depth liner notes by writer Daniel Schweiger (with new interview comments from the composer) and dynamic art design by David C. Fein. A must have for horror/fantasy fans from one of the genre's most celebrated composers.
