Award Winning Film "Emerging Past" Soundtrack Deal with Spectra

Spectra Records releasing soundtrack for award winning film "Emerging Past" online, iTunes and in stores.

Los Angeles, CA, January 06, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Spectra Records has inked a deal with Church Hill Productions and Chocolate Bunny Productions to release the soundtrack to their triple award winning film “Emerging Past.” The 17 song soundtrack, primarily an alternative rock album with a mixture of pop and instrumental movie themes, is available now for download via MP3 or to order as a CD through the film’s website. It will be available on iTunes in the upcoming weeks and in stores such as Best Buy, Borders and FYE in April. This partnership with Spectra marks quite an achievement for an independent film and puts “Emerging Past” into the ranks of major studio releases. "One of the best soundtracks I've heard all year! Great from start to finish." – Bobby Collins, Spectra Records.

The musical score and several songs were written for the film by Gerard McMann, better known as G Tom Mac, most famous for his cult favorite “Cry Little Sister” from the movie “The Lost Boys.” G Tom Mac has already had an internet hit with his single from the film “Soul I Bare” and its accompanying music video shot by “Emerging Past” filmmaker Thomas J. Churchill. G Tom Mac’s song with late actor Cory Haim, “Mend Me,” is also featured. Singer Katie DiCicco lends two songs to the CD: her award winning “Mud,” which took home Best Song from the New York City International Film Festival and “Beautiful Tragedy.” Churchill also directed the music video to “Mud” which can be seen on YouTube. Other Spectra artists such as Kizzy Star and gold selling artist Magni round out the playlist. Churchill is extremely proud of the finished product and feels it has “earned its position in stores next to soundtracks from the top grossing films.”

This soundtrack partnership is just the beginning for projects between Spectra Records and Church Hill Productions. Look for more music, film and events from this team in the near future.

Churchill has garnered much attention lately in the horror film world with “Emerging Past,” which he wrote, directed and produced. After creating a buzz at the New York City Independent Film Festival when a second screening had to be booked because of the overwhelming interest (a first in festival history), the film took home the award for Best Horror Feature and Best Song for “Mud.” This impressive accomplishment was followed by a Best Actor win at the Spooky Empire Freakshow Horror Film Festival in Orlando, FL in October. The Best Actor win made three wins in as many screenings, setting an enviable record for any feature film. Churchill premiered “Emerging Past” in Pennsylvania at the Mr. Hush Weekend of Fear, which also premiered “Mr. Hush” – a film in which he has a supporting role as Sheriff Churchill as well as being a producer. “Emerging Past” went on to the Salty Horror Film Festival in Salt Lake City and will continue to be shown to eager horror fans at festivals and conventions around the country in 2011.

“Emerging Past” is a horror twisted psycho-thriller rollercoaster ride of terror that follows a tormented woman on her journey to discover where her past is leading her. The film features an impressive cast of genre stars including: Brooke McCarter (“The Lost Boys”), Steve Dash (“Friday the 13th Part 2), Tony Moran (“Halloween 1 & 2”) and Stephen Geoffreys (“Fright Night”). Churchill says that his vision for the film came from a road trip to Washington DC, the setting for one of his favorite films, “The Exorcist” and says “somewhere between “The Exorcist” and “The Omen” “Emerging Past” shall sit.”

Features on a variety of internet radio programs - such as The Jimmy Star Show, Random Talk Radio and Mothpod - have helped to create anticipation and buzz on this film in the horror film community. It has also been mentioned on popular horror sites such as Dread Central, From Dusk Till Con, GeekTyrant and Encyclopedia Psychotica.

Churchill started out in the industry as an actor and moved on to creating films with his friends back home in New York City. Writing, directing and producing led to a Best Feature award at the age of 18 and his passion for filmmaking was sparked. His lifelong love of the horror genre has fueled his two most recent projects: the previously mentioned “Emerging Past” and “Mr. Hush.” With several projects in pre-production, you can look for his films to continue to be screened and distributed across the country in the coming years.
