‘All My Friends Are Dead’ – Slavvy Scoring Marcus Dunstan-Directed Slasher
Ukrainian-born, Miami-based producer, songwriter, composer, and filmmaker Rostislav Vaynshtok (Terrifier 2), better known as Slavvy, has officially signed on to score All My Friends Are Dead, the upcoming slasher film from Saw IV-3D writer and The Collector director Marcus Dunstan.
All My Friends Are Dead follows a group of close college friends who get a steal on a killer Airbnb for the biggest music festival of the year. A weekend of partying quickly takes a turn for the worst as members of the group are murdered one by one. They soon discover that each one of their deaths directly corresponds to one of the seven deadly sins.
The film, which stars stars Jojo Siwa and Jade Pettyjohn, is currently in post-production.
“I’ve always been a huge fan of the SAW franchise since I was a teenager. Having seen both The Collector and The Collection, and seeing the caliber of talent Marcus works with when it comes to music in his films, I was over the moon for the opportunity to work with him,” said Slavvy. “Charlie Clouser is a huge inspiration and rather than try and be a stand-in for an inimitable talent, I went full tilt with this one. Lots of Disasterpeace, John Carpenter, Goblin, Harry Manfredini, Bobby Krlic, Akira Yamaoka, Miami Nights 1984, Dev Hynes, and Paul Wiley present in this score.”
The soundtrack to the film will also feature a handful of Slavvy’s original songs.
In celebration of the news, Slavvy will release his latest composition, the main theme from Final Summer, on Oct. 24. The film was released on VOD September 12th.
Drawing inspiration from composers such as Vangelis, John Carpenter, Fabio Frizzi, Claudio Simonetti, Goblin, Jerry Goldsmith, Ben Lovett, Tangerine Dream, and the inimitable Disasterpeace. The track features a crushing darkness that sets the tone for bloody carnage to come as the film’s title card rolls. Slavvy will return to compose the full score for sequel that takes the film deeper into the 90’s; Final Summer 2.
Vaynshtok’s previous compositional offerings include songs in episodes of VICE News, and indie slasher titan and Screambox exclusive Terrifier 2, which returns to theaters on Nov. 1, promising fans a preview of the blood-soaked next installment Terrifier 3.

NEON has been absolutely slaying the marketing game for their horror output this year, and they’re kicking the Longlegs campaign into high gear with one more month until release.
A cryptic ad in The Seattle Times today (seen below) has led clever horror fans to discover TheBirthdayMurders.net, the brand new official viral marketing website for Longlegs.
The in-universe website details the victims of the serial killer known as Longlegs (Nicolas Cage), described as a “Satan-worshipping psycho” who has terrorized families throughout the Pacific Northwest for nearly three decades.
The website details, “A bloody trail of bodies here in the great state of Oregon attests to the depraved savagery of this one-of-a-kind serial killer. With over three dozen victims that we know of, LONGLEGS is one of the most prolific mass murderers ever to have graced the region, and his gruesome endeavors are the stuff of nightmares. At first, all of the killings appeared to be straightforward murder-suicides: the handiwork of average men who suddenly snapped and slaughtered their wives and children. But a series of eerie coded messages left at the crime scenes indicate that someone – or something – is influencing these horrific crimes. The cryptic letters are signed by someone calling himself LONGLEGS.”
“With thirty-eight kills to his name, LONGLEGS has torn apart the lives of eleven different families throughout the Beaver State. His victims were good people: honest fathers, decent mothers, innocent little children.”
The website is loaded with secrets, clues, and gruesome (faux) crime scene photos, and you might even find a mention of yours truly nestled in there. Poke around. Stay a while.
Longlegs arrives in theaters July 12.
The upcoming serial killer horror movie marks the return of director Osgood Perkins (The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Gretel & Hansel). Nicolas Cage stars alongside Maika Monroe, with Monroe playing an FBI agent and Cage playing a serial killer.
In the film, “FBI Agent Lee Harker (Monroe) is a gifted new recruit assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer (Cage). As the case takes complex turns, unearthing evidence of the occult, Harker discovers a personal connection to the merciless killer and must race against time to stop him before he claims the lives of another innocent family.
The film is rated “R” for “Bloody violence, disturbing images and some language.”
