Joseph Bishara has signed on to score the supernatural horror thriller The Warren Files. The film reunites the composer with director James Wan (Saw). They previously worked together on last year’s hit horror film Insidious. The Warren Files stars Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga as a husband and wife team of demonologists and psychic investigators who enter the most horrifying case of their career, spirits in a Rhode Island farmhouse. Ron Livingston, Lily Taylor, Hayley McFarland, Shanley Canwell are co-starring in the thriller. Chad and Carey Hayes (House of Wax, The Reaping) have written the screenplay and Rob Cowan (The Crazies, The Shipping News), Tony DeRosa-Grund (Josie and the Pussycats) and Peter Safran (Buried) are producing the New Line Cinema film. The Warren Files is expected to be released in 2013.
Bishara is also producing the music for The Devil’s Carnival directed by Darren Lynn Bousman who has worked with the composer before on Repo: The Genetic Opera and last year’s 11-11-11. The film is written by Terrance Zdunich who is also starring in the film and has written the music for the project with Saar Hendelman. Taryn Manning, Bill Moseley, Briana Evigan, Emilie Autumn, J. Larose, Alexa Vega, Ogre, Paul Sorvino, Marc Senter, Sean Patrick Flanery and Slipknot’s The Clown are also starring in the short film, which will hit the road in April as a 30-city rock tour turning venues into environments that tie to the film and that will encourage audience participation.
