What techniques do horror movie composers use to terrify us? A lot of techniques are thanks to Krzysztof Penderecki, a Polish composer whose music was used by director William Friedkin to score The Exorcist and Stanley Kubrick to score The Shining

Penderecki's music can be heard in the works of Stanley Kubrick and David Lynch, and has even inspired the scores of modern horror films such as Bird Box. Nahre Sol and LA Buckner explore the techniques used by Penderecki and use them to compose their own music for an original film starring Toussaint Morrison from America From Scratch.
