It was game on tonight on DANCING WITH THE STARS. All couples brought out their best moves and tricks. Some worked, some faltered. But, with a double elimination coming their way Tuesday, this wasn’t the time to play it safe. William Levy & Cheryl Burke topped the leader board tonight with a perfect 30 in their first round. The couples’ second round dances were accompanied by another male or female pro of their choice. Levy & Burke choose Tony Dovolani to grace the floor with them during their Paso Doble, keeping them in first place at the end of the […]Read On »

CD Review: I WAS A TEENAGE WEREBEAR soundtrack

First there was a CHILLERAMA album dedicated to Bear McCreary’s shit-kicking score for the ZOM-B MOVIE segment. Now Buysoundtrax continues the love for this Troma-esque drive-in goof by going from the funkily scatological to the absolutely gay 50’s tunes of I WAS A TEENAGE WEREBEAR. Director and co-songwriter Tim Sullivan goes for a LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS meets GREASE vibe, as put through the ROCKY HORROR raunchy double entendre wringer for this teenage coming out tale that would likely have made Michael Landon blush. Yet WEREBEAR‘s tunes are far more cute fun than anything else, with numbers like “Love Bit […]Read On »

Taking the kind of THREE’S COMPANY-meets-disapproving parent set-up that had made for so many lowbrow situation comedies, Chinese director Ang Lee put himself on the international film map with this gay charmer, a WEDDING BANQUET which also marked a major step up for NYC indie composer Mader (IN THE SOUP). Creating one of the first mainstream scores to notably blend Asian instruments with a hip Manhattan sensibility, Mader’s culture clash between morally old school mom and dad with their offspring’s vivacious energy deftly uses long, virtuoso passages for the poetically simple sound of ancient winds and strings, as cutely interplayed […]Read On »

CD Review: THE LORAX soundtrack

He had to jump from classical tunes to pop standards and his own manic melodies within the space a half second while playing the likes of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck. Yet somehow, composer Carl Stalling’s job of melodically tying his toon music together looks positively relaxed when compared to the frantically ironic humor of today’s ADD animated pictures. But if there’s one of today’s composing generation who’s inherited the Stalling crown with a modicum of style and invention, let alone sanity, then it would be John Powell. With thrillingly manic scores for the likes of ROBOTS and two HAPPY […]Read On »
