This just in from COFFIN JOE (Jose Mojica Marins) about Gary's new live score for his film "Esta Noite Encarnerei no teu Cadaver":
"Excelente! Fabuloso! Gary is a first class musician! I have always maintained that music is a totaly essential tool to horror films and in the case of this new score to my film 'This Night I Will Possess your Corpse', created so many years after the film was produced, Gary Lucas's score penetrated the soul of the film, as Coffin Joe is empowered to penetrate Souls at Midnight. I definitively hope we can collaborate again!"
