First time on vinyl! Sinister is a 2012 supernatural horror film directed by Scott Derrickson and written by Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill. The film stars Ethan Hawke as a struggling true-crime writer whose discovery of snuff films depicting gruesome murders and strange supernatural elements in his new house puts his family in danger. The soundtrack is by composer Christopher Young, who has over 100 soundtracks to his credit, including "Spider-Man 3" and the horror film "Drag Me to Hell." Young explains in the LP's liner notes that he usually uses an orchestra, but with "Sinister," he composed his first all-synth/sound-design-based score.
