It’s impossible to imagine the Friday the 13th franchise without the music of composer Harry Manfredini, whose contributions to the Voorhees saga are as essential as the characters, the gore, and the hockey mask. Manfredini has scored countless horror films in addition to the movies in the Friday franchise, and his next horror movie has been announced this week.
The dark side of wish fulfillment is explored in the upcoming feature-length horror film Wish, which asks the question: How far would you go to have your dreams come true?
The production team has announced the inclusion of legendary composer Harry Manfredini to create the soundtrack for Wish. Read on for more information and find a sneak peek below.
Set in modern-day Florida, Wish follows the story of a struggling female writer who, in her pursuit of success, uncovers a terrifying secret – her friends are making deadly wishes to an evil Djinn. One by one, as these seemingly innocent wishes come true, they unleash horrific consequences, leading to a cascade of mysterious and gruesome deaths. The film delves into the human obsession with shortcuts to success and the tragic price that comes with it.
“Wish is a dark, psychological horror film that explores the desperation of wanting a better life and the dangers that come with taking the easy way out,” says director Robert Massetti. “With Harry Manfredini’s masterful touch, we will heighten the suspense and terror with a score that taps into the primal fears of our audience, much like his unforgettable work on Friday the 13th.”
Wish is produced by FEAR FILM Studios, with the team promising “stunning practical makeup effects and creature design to maximize the terror without reliance on CGI.”
