The ‘Until Dawn’ Soundtrack is Available to Haunt Your Weekend Getaway
So, let me tell you a funny story. A few months back, I showed a friend of mine It Follows. She had heard some things about it but didn’t really know anything concrete. She just heard that it was really scary and that she’d have trouble sleeping if she watched it. So, of course, I was the bad guy who put it on. Needless to say, she was deeply unsettled.
Fast forward a month or two later and she, myself, and another friend are at 16-Bit in Cleveland having some drinks and playing some N64 on the patio. As a joke, I pulled out my cell and headphones, put on Disasterpeace’s soundtrack, and had her pop in the earbuds. Lo and behold, she was suddenly terrified of every single person who was walking down the street, towards the bar, or simply approaching the N64 table. Like, “grab my arm and squeeze as hard as she could” terrified. It was pretty damn amusing but I’m a bit of a sadist like that.
The reason I’m telling you this story is because anyone who’s thinking of grabbing some friends and getting away to a cabin for the weekend should take Jason Graves‘ music for Until Dawn and have that same kinda experience. Is there a killer lurking in the woods waiting for the opportune moment to burst in and massacre you all? Maybe. Could someone be waiting behind that tree, biding their time before they off you far away from your friends so that they’ll only figure it out when it’s too late? Signs point to “Yes”. After all, what’s better than scaring the shit out of your pals?
…There’s a reason I don’t have many friends.

The Lost Boys: A New Musical officially kicked off on Broadway last month, and Deadline now reports that the show’s Broadway run has been extended into next year.
The show was originally set to run through November, but Deadline reports that The Lost Boys: A New Musical “has released a block of tickets through Sunday, March 7, 2027.”

Additionally, “The Lost Boys will launch a North American National Tour in Spring 2028, at Playhouse Square in Cleveland. Additional cities and tour dates will be announced later.”
The Lost Boys: A New Musical is of course an adaptation of the 1987 horror classic from director Joel Schumacher, with the cast including Ali Louis Bourzgui as lead vampire David (originally played by Kiefer Sutherland), Maria Wirries as Star (originally played by Jami Gertz), and LJ Benet as the soon-to-be-turned Michael (originally played by Jason Patric).

When a mother and her two teenage sons move to Santa Carla in desperate need of a fresh start, they soon uncover the darker side of this sunny coastal community. While Lucy tries to piece her family’s life back together, Michael keeps pulling away in search of belonging.
As he finds connection with a local rock band and its charismatic leader, his younger brother Sam comes face-to-face with a terrifying reality: When night falls, Michael’s new friends are even more dangerous than they first appeared.
Joel Schumacher directed the original The Lost Boys vampire movie in 1987, wherein two brothers move to a new town and discover that the area is a haven for vampires.
