When Led Zeppelin broke up following the death of drummer John Bonham, little did two of the surviving members realize they’d be working with director Michael Winner. First Jimmy Page scored Death Wish II. A few years later John Paul Jones worked out the soundtrack for Scream For Help. His notes had to build up the tensions of a young girl who swears her new stepdad is out to eliminate the family. The script was written by Tom Holland before he’d direct Fright Night and Child’s Play. Scream For Help arrives on Blu-ray on September 18. Here’s the press release from Scream Factory:
“…Scream For Help is a winner.” – Horrornews.net
