Ben Salisbury & Geoff Barrow Offer A First Listen To MEN Original Horror Soundtrack
MEN is an upcoming folk horror film written and is visionary filmmaker Alex Garland’s (EX MACHINA, ANNIHILATION) latest feverish, shape-shifting new horror film. The film stars Jessie Buckley and Rory Kinnear, and is about Harper (Buckley) who, in the aftermath of a personal tragedy, retreats alone to the beautiful English countryside hoping to have found a place to heal. But someone or something from the surrounding woods appears to be stalking her. What begins as simmering dread becomes a fully-formed nightmare, inhabited by her darkest memories and fears
The score for MEN has been composed by Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow. Salisbury formed a composing partnership with Geoff Barrow (Portishead and Beak>) and together the pair have scored Alex Garland’s EX MACHINA, ANNIHILATION and DEVS. Other notable credits include the Netflix series ARCHIVE 81, Ben Wheatley’s FREE FIRE and Charlie Brooker’s BLACK MIRROR episode, “Men Against Fire.” They also scored three seasons of thriller series HANNA for Amazon Studios and NBC Universal, and the feature LUCE starring Octavia Spencer and Naomi Watts.
MEN is scheduled to be released in the United States on May 20, 2022, by A24, and in the United Kingdom on June 1, 2022, by Entertainment Film Distributors.
