Classical music creates a eerie background for horror films

Today, I you-tubed Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata."

I am willing to bet that everyone at some point has heard of this song or listened to its chords of suffering and horror in a movie.

Bottom line, Beethoven is a genius for writing and composing this song because it makes me think of everything that the horror genre is about.

Horror is about screaming, the viewers biggest fears in life, the unexplained happenings, but most of all, the things that an everyday person does not encounter in their lives.

Horror is what we wish existed or what we love to watch happen to someone else as we sit on the sidelines.

The beauty of the horror genre is more than just words.

Horror is actions happening in the imagination or worst of all, reality.

So here is a classic eerie song that suits perfect for the horror genre:

"Jeepers Creepers 3: Cathedral"


"Jeepers Creepers 3: Cathedral" is scheduled to be released in Spring 2011.

According to Bloody Disgusting, screenplay writer and director Victor Salva says, Ray Wise will return as the monster-hunting farmer named Taggart and the Creeper will again be played by Jonathan Breck.



The story is about Trisha Jenner (Gina Philips), one of the main characters in the first film, who now has a son named Darry (named after her late brother who was killed by the Creeper) and has nightmares of her son suffering the same fate. So she goes out with Jack Taggart and his son to end the Creeper's reign once and for all.

According to an interview with Moviehole, Salva said the film will be a direct-to-video release but he has hopes the film might get a theatrical release.
