Prom Night: Original 1980 Motion Picture Soundtrack

Prom Night: Original 1980 Motion Picture Soundtrack
by Paul Zaza & Carl Zittrer

World premiere of the original score and disco songs from the 
1980 cult slasher film, featuring unreleased music

To be released on May 10th
Perseverance Records presents the long awaited official release of the 1980 cult classic Prom Night Original Motion Picture Soundtrack. Perseverance worked closely with Carl Zittrer and Paul Zaza to locate and unearth the original masters and all music recorded for the film including unreleased disco songs and score not used in the final production, never heard before anywhere.

This marks the first official and complete CD release of the Prom Night soundtrack. While the songs themselves have made appearances on a notorious Japanese LP and eventual bootleg recordings sourced from it, there was no official release of the songs - partially because the movie was made in the waning days of the disco fever. 

This soundtrack features four different aspects of the music. First it opens with a re-creation of the score as it appears in the film - or as close to it as it could be assembled from the separate elements. Next is the score that wasn't used in the picture. Then come the disco songs in approximate order - but omitting the Blue Bazaar songs that were not featured in the movie and were used only as filler for the bootleg Japanese LP. The last portion of the album is dedicated to the songs that don't appear in the picture yet are as intrinsic to the sound of Prom Night as the songs that made it.

"I remember seeing Prom Night during its release in 1980, when disco was still the craze. I was determined to obtain a copy of the soundtrack and to play the theme song at my senior prom only to find that it was never released. I spent years looking at the audiophile catalog at Tower Records hoping to find a release date but no luck. Now, after almost 40 years, my dream has now become a reality! Fans alike are now able to enjoy the soundtrack!" - Silvio Barretta, Producer

Prom Night is a 1980 cult classic horror thriller directed by Paul Lynch (RoboCop, Xena: Warrior Princess, Poltergeist: The Legacy, Star Trek: The Next Generation) and stars Jamie Lee Curtis as Kim Hammond and Leslie Nielsen as Mr. Hammond. The movie focuses on four middle school children, Kelly Lynch, Jude Cunningham, Wendy Richards, and Nick McBride who hide the truth of what happened six years ago to ten-year-old Robin Hammond the day her body was found near and abandoned convent. They swore never to tell anyone of how they taunted Robin, backing her into a corner, frightened, when falling to her death while standing on a window ledge. But on that day, six years ago, someone else was there, watching, and now seeks revenge on prom night!

AFI and Will & Jada Smith Family Foundation Launch Young Women in Film Intensive

American Film Institute

AFI CONSERVATORY AND WILL & JADA SMITH FAMILY FOUNDATION
PARTNER FOR SECOND ANNUAL YOUNG WOMEN IN FILM INTENSIVE

AFI to Host 45 Female, Los Angeles-Area Students for
Eight-Week Filmmaking Workshop

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Tuesday, March 26, 2019 – The AFI Conservatory and the Will & Jada Smith Family Foundation (WJSFF) have partnered to launch the second annual Young Women in Film intensive. Beginning March 26, the eight-week filmmaking workshop will be held on the AFI Campus in Los Angeles for 45 promising high school girls from ICEF (Inner City Education Foundation) View Park Preparatory Accelerated Charter High School, Immaculate Heart and Synergy Quantum Academy High School. All students will receive mentorship from a talented group of both current Fellows and working, professional alumni of the AFI Conservatory. This program is made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs.

"AFI has long been an epicenter for educating and inspiring creators, and we are proud to have them join us, for the second year, in our effort to put a spotlight on female storytellers in film," said Jana Babatunde-Bey, President and CEO of the Will & Jada Smith Family Foundation. "Inclusion can only be made possible when we create pipelines for opportunity as young artists continue to hone their craft, and this program is a perfect example of our work to create access and opportunity for diverse voices."

The Young Women in Film program will begin with a seminar by Dr. Emily Carman, Associate Professor of Film and Media Arts at Chapman University, on the historic contributions of female filmmakers to the cinematic art form. Over six subsequent sessions, students will learn the art of filmmaking, with training in pitching, screenwriting, producing, production design, directing, cinematography and editing — all with state-of-the-art cinematic technology. Participants will work together in teams alongside AFI Conservatory Fellows and alumni to create a series of short films that will be screened for audiences on campus at the conclusion of the program. In making their films, students will also have access to professional actors from the SAG-AFTRA Los Angeles Conservatory, which is based on the AFI Campus. Read more about the program and view last year's films here.

The Young Women in Film partnership is one of the American Film Institute's pioneering, tuition-free efforts to empower female filmmakers, including the landmark AFI Directing Workshop for Women and the AFI Cinematography Introductory Intensive for Women. Read more about these programs at AFI.com.

Under the leadership of Jana Babatunde-Bey, the Will & Jada Smith Family Foundation has paved the way for diverse voices to impact the entertainment industry. Whether sharing the stories of female filmmakers such as Minhal Baig with HALA — which had its world premiere at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival and sold to Apple — or motivating youth across the country with the Careers in Entertainment Tour, WJSFF continues to inspire the next generation while creating change and social impact.

About the AFI Conservatory

Today, the AFI Conservatory offers a two-year Master of Fine Arts degree in six filmmaking disciplines: Cinematography, Directing, Editing, Producing, Production Design and Screenwriting.

Begin the Begin: R.E.M.'s Early Years

Begin the Begin: R.E.M.'s Early Years


Begin the Begin: R.E.M.'s Early Years
Coming via Verse Chorus Press on May 14
 


Begin the Begin is the first biography of R.E.M. wholly researched and written since they disbanded in 2011. It offers by far the most detailed account of the group's formative years--their early lives, their first encounters with one another, their legendary debut show, early tours in the back of a van, initial recordings, their shrewdly paced rise to fame. 

The people and places of the American South are crucial to the R.E.M. story in ways much more complex and interesting than have previously been presented, claims Robert Dean Lurie; he explores the myriad ways in which the band's adopted hometown of Athens, Georgia--and the South in general--shaped its members and the character of their art. The South is much more than the background here; it plays a major role: the creative ferment that erupted in Athens and gripped many of its young inhabitants in the late 1970s and early '80s drew on regional traditions of outsider art and general cultural out-thereness, and gave rise to a free-spirited music scene that produced the B-52's and Pylon, as well as laying the ground for R.E.M.'s subsequent breakout success. 

Lurie has tracked down and interviewed numerous figures in the band's history who were underrepresented in, or absent from, earlier biographies--they contribute previously undocumented stories and cast a fresh light on the familiar narrative.

Advance Praise for Begin the Begin

"Meticulously researched and always elegantly written, Begin the Begin is a critical but glorious tribute to its subject."
--Christopher Sandford, author of Bowie: Loving the Alien

"Hope, yearning, and fear are visceral here, and the portrait painted is of something joyous, mad, and brilliant all at once." 
--David Guterson, author of Snow Falling on Cedars

"This beautiful, joyful book is more than a biography--it's a deep exploration of art and its bloody relationship with business, a meditation on the South, on youth and love, on family and fame, and an intelligent return to the soundtrack of the 1980s." 
--Rebecca Lee, author of Bobcat and Other Stories

When media-savvy members of the Satanic Temple organize a series of public actions designed to advocate for religious freedom and challenge corrupt authority, they prove that with little more than a clever idea, a mischievous sense of humor, and a few rebellious friends, you can speak truth to power in some truly profound ways. As charming and funny as it is thought-provoking, Hail Satan?offers a timely look at a group of often misunderstood outsiders whose unwavering commitment to social and political justice has empowered thousands of people around the world.

The anniversary celebration will continue throughout the month of April on tbs.com and the TBS app, where fans can enter to win Family Guy swag. Featured episodes will also be released weekly throughout the month of April.

With MacFarlane's commentary on each episode, the linear schedule is below.
FAMILY GUY
MARATHON

10:30 AM - "Road to Rhode Island"
Brian goes to California to escort Stewie home from his visit with his grandparents.

“This was the first Stewie/Brian road show we ever did, and it’s the first episode that firmly established their unique relationship. It was our fresh take on that classic old trope of a dog and a baby hitting the road together.”


11:00 AM - "Brian Wallows and Peter’s Swallows"
Brian is sentenced to care for a crabby old woman; Peter's beard becomes a home for birds.

“This episode won us an Emmy for its musical number. Before that, none of us had never seen an Emmy before.”
 

11:30 AM - "North by North Quahog"
During their second honeymoon, Peter and Lois stumble upon a horror too great to bear: Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ 2.

“Our first episode back from cancellation. It was a comedic riff on a Hitchcock classic, complete with a Bernard Herrmann score. This is the type of whip-smart, nuanced writing I was capable of 10,000 drinks ago.”
 

12:00 PM - "Petarded"
After winning at Trivial Pursuit, Peter claims to be a genius, so Brian asks him to take an IQ test to prove it.

“This is a brilliant episode and just so Twitter knows, I was out with the flu the day they came up with the title.”


12:30 PM - "PTV"
Peter broadcasts a television station out of the Griffin home.

“This episode was the culmination of our completely wholesome, non-sexual relationship with the FCC.”


1:00 PM - "Brian Sings and Swings"
A near-death experience lands Brian in the hospital but infuses him with a new passion for life.

“This episode featured our dear friend, the wonderful Frank Sinatra Jr. It’s also when I realized that if you have songs in an episode, you have to write way less.”


1:30 PM - "Patriot Games"
At his high school reunion, Peter pretends to be a millionaire, but the truth comes out when he meets Tom Brady and loses all self-control.

“One word: Shipoopi.”
 

2:00 PM - "The Griffin Family History"
The Griffins get robbed; Peter narrates a chain of events in world history that explains the Griffin name.

“A fun premise and a great-looking episode. This was our first real foray into a non-traditional format.”


2:30 PM - "Road to Rupert"
Brian accidentally sells Stewie's beloved teddy bear, Rupert; Meg must drive Peter around after he loses his license.

“Stewie dances with Gene Kelly. Enough said.”


3:00 PM - "Blue Harvest Pt. 1" & "Blue Harvest Pt. 2"
With the Griffins stuck at home during a blackout, Peter begins to tell a story, which leads to a Star Wars flashback. Acting out scenes from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, Peter plays Han Solo, Lois is Princess Leia, Stewie becomes Darth Vader, Brian plays Chewbacca, and Chris is Luke Skywalker. Cleveland and Quagmire will play the parts of R2-D2 and C-3PO, while Herbert is the wise Obi-Wan Kenobi.

“This episode is what finally put Star Wars on the map.”


4:00 PM - "I Dream of Jesus"
Peter rediscovers his love for the painfully annoying song, "Surfin' Bird" which drives people around him crazy; and when Peter finds Jesus in a record store, he's determined to be his new best friend.

“The bird is still the word.”


4:30 PM - "Road to Germany"
Mort Goldman accidentally steps into a time machine and winds up in 1939 Poland in the middle of the Nazi invasion. Brian and Stewie follow him to Nazi Germany in an attempt to save him and bring him back to the present safely.

“This was our homage to Herman Wouk’s ‘The Winds Of War.’ And sadly, if you’re an American male under age 35, studies show this episode is all you know about World War II.”


5:00 PM - "Road to Multiverse"
Stewie and Brian visit alternate universes and become stuck in one ruled by dogs.

“Back before Walt Disney’s Family Guy was a real thing, it was a fake thing.” 


5:30 PM - "Extra Large Medium"
Peter believes he possesses psychic powers; Chris falls for a classmate with Down Syndrome.

“Psychics are frauds. You’re welcome.”


6:00 PM - "Brian Griffin’s House of Payne"
Brian's television pilot script gets picked up by a network, but he's horrified when changes are made to his concept; Chris and Meg accidentally knock Stewie unconscious.

“An amazing opening sequence with great visual effects scored by a 75-piece orchestra. Fun trivia: Family Guy employs more full-time tuba players than the rest of Hollywood combined.”


6:30 PM - "Brian and Stewie"
Brian and Stewie are locked up inside a bank vault for an entire episode.

“We wanted to see if our characters were interesting enough to sustain a full episode in one room, without gags or cutaways. In Hollywood, this is called a “bottle episode,” because it only utilizes one set, and also because the writers were drunk.”


7:00 PM - "And Then There Were Fewer Pt. 1" & "And Then There Were Fewer Pt. 2"
People throughout Quahog are summoned to a mysterious mansion, where actor James Woods hosts a dinner party to atone for his misdeeds and guests begin dying, one by one. After more of James Woods' dinner party guests meet grisly fates, the identity of the mysterious killer is revealed.

“I think this is my favorite episode of the series. A classic format, great-looking direction, and, I hope, a genuinely surprising ending. It was also the first episode to air in HD. It was really cool to finally see Lois’s pores.”


8:00 PM - "Road to the North Pole Pt. 1" & "Road to the North Pole Pt. 2"
Brian and Stewie take their adventures to the North Pole to seek out Santa Claus.

“My dad’s in this one.”


9:00 PM - "The Big Bang Theory"
Using the time machine, Stewie and Brian accidentally travel outside the space-time continuum, where Stewie causes an explosion that creates the universe; Bertram travels back in time to kill one of Stewie's ancestors: Leonardo da Vinci.

“This was based on a story I wrote in college. The A.V. Club gave this episode a B, which is their highest rating I think.”


9:30 PM - "Back to the Pilot"
Brian and Stewie travel back in time to January 31, 1999, and witness the events that took place in the very first episode of Family Guy, "Death Has a Shadow".

“It was fun to re-visit an era before I hired people who could draw better than me.”
AMERICAN DAD!
NEW EPISODE

10:00 PM - "Fantasy Baseball"
CROSSOVER EPISODE
Family Guy / American Dad! / Cleveland Show

10:30 PM - "Hurricane"

Watch Exclusive Fandango Interview with Zachary Levi Ahead of "Shazam!" Early Screening

Fans and Fandango VIP Members Can Enjoy “Shazam!” on Saturday at More than 1,200 Theaters Nationwide – Two Weeks in Advance of The Film’s April 5 Release Date
 
LOS ANGELES – March 20, 2019 – Fandango, the leading digital network for all things movies, has teamed up with Warner Bros. Pictures to offer exclusive advance screenings this Saturday, March 23, of "Shazam!," the newest DC Super Hero to hit the big screen and one of the most highly anticipated movies of the season.

In an exclusive Fandango interview posted here, “Shazam!” star Zachary Levi reveals his favorite places to sit in the movie theater and his favorite theater snacks (popcorn and raisinets …at the same time?), as part of Fandango’s “Concessions Confessions” video series.

Fans can also enjoy a special shout-out from the film’s star, Zachary Levi, about Fandango’s early access screenings here, and purchase a special “Shazam!” Fandango gift card here.

“Fans can’t wait to see Zachary Levi’s portrayal of DC Comics’ superhero, Shazam, especially because Levi has been such a champion of fandom and comic book movies over the years,” says Fandango Managing Editor Erik Davis. “‘Shazam!’ is big, goofy, lovable fun for the family, and early positive reactions point to another hit for DC. We’re super excited that Fandango VIP fans can see the film two weeks before it hits theaters.”

According to a Fandango survey of more than 1,000 “Shazam!” ticket-buyers:
  • 93% are looking forward to a lighter superhero movie.
  • 86% are DC Comics fans.
  • 83% are excited to see Zachary Levi as Shazam.
  • 82% dreamed about having superpowers as kids.
Nearly two weeks before the film's April 5 release date, fans and members of Fandango VIP, Fandango's free-to-join rewards program, can get a first look at the film in screenings taking place at approximately 1,200 select theaters and 40 exhibition circuits nationwide.  

For every movie ticket purchased on Fandango, Fandango VIP members also receive 125 Points. Once members reach 500 Points, they will receive a five-dollar reward redeemable for more movies - either for future movie-ticket purchases or for digital-movie purchases and rentals on FandangoNOW. In addition to earning points on Fandango, Fandango VIP members can also link their other theater rewards cards, including AMC Stubs, Cinemark Connections, Regal Crown Club and others, for even more benefits.

About “Shazam!"
We all have a superhero inside us, it just takes a bit of magic to bring it out.  In Billy Batson’s case, by shouting out one word—SHAZAM!—this streetwise 14-year-old foster kid can turn into the adult Super Hero Shazam, courtesy of an ancient wizard.  Still a kid at heart—inside a ripped, godlike body—Shazam revels in this adult version of himself by doing what any teen would do with superpowers: have fun with them!  With the help of superhero enthusiast friend Freddy, Shazam sets out to test the limits of his abilities with the joyful recklessness of the child he is inside. But he’ll need to master them quickly to fight the deadly forces of evil controlled by Dr. Thaddeus Sivana, who’s got his eye on Shazam’s powers and wants them for himself.
 
David F. Sandberg directed the origin story that stars Zachary Levi as the titular DC Super Hero, along with Mark Strong in the role of Super-Villain Dr. Thaddeus Sivana, and Asher Angel as Billy Batson.  Peter Safran produced the film, which also stars Jack Dylan Grazer and Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou.  Firmly set in the DC universe but with its own distinctly fun, family-centric tone, the screenplay is by Henry Gayden, story by Gayden and Darren Lemke, based on characters from DC.  Shazam was created by Bill Parker and C.C. Beck.  Jeffrey Chernov, Christopher Godsick, Walter Hamada, Geoff Johns, Adam Schlagman, Richard Brener, Dave Neustadter, Dany Garcia, Hiram Garcia and Dwayne Johnson served as executive producers.
 
A New Line Cinema presentation, “SHAZAM!” will be distributed worldwide in 2D and 3D in theatres and IMAX by Warner Bros. Pictures.  The film has been rated PG-13 for intense sequences of action, language, and suggestive material. www.ShazamMovie.com.
