Was

The music cue that plays during the aborted attempt to capture
the killer sounds like your work, would this be a correct assumption ? BC: The scene with the jogger was a cue we recorded for that scene entitled "Jogger" |

Were there many
unused cues created for Manhunter by yourselves? BC: I have in my possession a cassette of all the cues we recorded that were used in Manhunter and those that weren't. We recorded music for a few scenes that Michael either decided he didn't want music or wanted to use an actual song for those scenes. |

One piece which wasn't used was the scene where Will is in the yard up in the tree looking into the house. Also we recorded music for the fantasy scene where Will sees the Mrs. Leeds rise out of the bed with the silver eyes, which wasn't used. |

Also when Michael first showed us the scene with Dolarhyde chasing
the blind girl in his house Iron Butterfly just started playing out of nowhere. And me and my partner, Rick just looked at each other and said to Michael, why is that playing? Mann says to us well that's what Dolarhyde is listening to on his stereo. At this point there was no action showing the eight track being put into the machine. So we said to Michael why don't you show him putting in a tape or starting a turntable showing that he is about to play Iron Butterfly as if he was supplying his own music for the chase. Well that is what he did, Mann went back and showed us a new scene showing Dolarhyde (actually just a hand) putting in the tape of Iron Butterfly. I think it made the scene even nuttier....that this guy was really off his rocker to put on Iron Butterfly for his music. One more story on this.....we told Michael that Hendrix's "Voodoo Child" would have been a great choice too..even just for the song title. |
