Renowned Japanese video game composer Akira Yamaoka (Silent Hill, Lollipop Chainsaw, Shadow Of The Damned) has posted a short video where he discusses the role of director Dario Argento in his musical upbringing and how he wants to return the favor and bring his work into the world of Argento’s upcoming film The Sandman. The interview can be seen below.
The film, which is currently funding via Indiegogo, stars Iggy Pop as the title character, “…a masked killer who murders his victims with a lethally jagged melon spoon and claims their eyes as trophies.“. Make sure to check out our interview with Argento about the film right here.
If you’re quick, you can purchase into the “Robert Tobias” perk, which nets you one of Yamaoka’s guitars. This guitar was used to compose the theme song for the film.
