Lakeshore Records To Release Soundtrack For The Latest Asian Horror Remake Shutter

Los Angeles, CA. (Top40 Charts/ CineMedia Promotions) - Lakeshore Records will release the original motion picture soundtrack for SHUTTER via iTunes March 25th. The album contains original music by Nathan Barr (HOSTEL, THE DUKES OF HAZZARD).

Nathan Barr began studying music in Tokyo, Japan at the age of four. He grew up surrounded by eclectic music ranging from Kabuki Theater, to the sounds of his mother performing on the koto and piano, to his father playing the banjo, guitar, and shakuhachi. His interest in music was further influenced by extensive travels around the world, where he experienced music ranging from Bali's Kecak Orchestras to China's Beijing Opera. During the summer of 1993, he toured Italy and Switzerland with the Juilliard Cello Ensemble. Upon graduating from college, he joined the industrial alternative rock group V.A.S.T. (Elektra Records) for a short time, playing guitar and electric cello.

Looking to explore a career in film music, he moved to Los Angeles in 1996, and worked as Academy Award-winning film composer Hans Zimmer's assistant. In 1998 Nathan landed his first feature HAIRSTRUCK and has been working constantly ever since on such films as HOSTEL and HOSTEL: PART II, THE DUKES OF HAZZARD, and BEERFEST. His upcoming projects include TORTURED and THE SLAMMIN' SALMON.

From the executive producers of THE GRUDGE and THE RING comes SHUTTER, a remake of the Thai chiller. A newly married couple discovers disturbing, ghostly images in photographs they develop after a tragic accident. Fearing the manifestations may be connected, they investigate and learn that some mysteries are better left unsolved.
20th Century Fox presents SHUTTER in theaters on March 21, 2008. The Lakeshore Records recording will be available on iTunes on March 25, 2008.
