“Mr. Robot” Vinyl Packaging Reveal + Stream Two Tracks! (Exclusive)

Published

on

USA’s “Mr. Robot” may not necessarily fall under the normal Bloody-Disgusting coverage umbrella as it’s not horror. But from what I hear (Full disclosure: I haven’t seen the show), it’s a tense thriller with stellar acting and an engaging storyline that has gone on to receive critical acclaim.

One aspect that has garnered much appreciation and adoration from fans is composer Mac Quayle‘s original score, which not only embraces the technological foundation of the show but also takes strong influence from the humanity, combining both into a warm yet calculated and claustrophobic electronic wave.

Today, we’re thrilled to premiere the cover artwork for Invada UK’s upcoming vinyl pressing, which will be released on July 29th, as well as stream two tracks, all of which can be viewed below. The album is currently out on digital via Lakeshore Records.

Invada will be releasing the score on two 2xLP volumes, much like how they did with “Hannibal”. Additionally, the Invada webstore will have an exclusive mail order variant that features a 12″x12″ lithograph.

Both volumes will be available for pre-order next Friday, June 17th, through the official Invada webstore.

‘The Haunting of Pennhurst’ Exclusive Clip Trains Scare Actors For Historic Haunt in Tribeca Doc

The Haunting of Pennhurst Clip

The past and present collide in haunting, poignant ways in the genre documentary The Haunting of Pennhurst, which sees a Halloween haunt serve as a reclamation of true historic horrors. 

Ahead of its world premiere at the 25th Tribeca Film Festival, we have an exclusive clip that sees scare actors in training for the Halloween season. The catch? This haunt is opening at the historic Pennhurst State School & Hospital site, a facility that caused immense harm to its disabled patients over decades of its operation.

In the documentary, “For over seventy years, Pennhurst State School & Hospital was called a place of care. What happened inside killed over half its population. It closed in 1987, leaving behind unmarked graves and an unresolved history. Today, on those same grounds, disabled performers – many living with the same conditions that once sent people to Pennhurst – put on their makeup, pull on their costumes, and prepare to scare people for a living.

“Through grit, compassion, and buckets of blood, the eclectic performers of the Pennhurst Asylum haunted attraction are wrestling with a space that is at once a lucrative business and a gravesite.”

The upcoming documentary hails from directing trio Nathan Stenberg, Mike Attie, and Katarina Poljak, who explore their socially-relevant subject through archival footage, first-hand accounts, and an immersive verité.

“Pennhurst has haunted us since we first passed through its dragon-tooth gates; the horrors of the institution echo through the site today. We are so grateful to bring this film to the Tribeca Festival, particularly the Escape from Tribeca section, which feels right for a story where past and present bleed together. We hope audiences leave unnerved and asking the same uncomfortable questions we did,” Attie, Stenberg, and Poljak said in a statement. 

Watch the clip below that sees disabled and neurodivergent scare actors learning the ropes of a Halloween haunt, reclaiming the site’s grim history in the process.
