John Frizzell has recently been finishing up work on his score for the Screen Gems thriller The Roommate. In the movie, College freshman Sara played by Minka Kelly is randomly assigned to live in a dorm with another girl named Rebecca (Leighton Meester) who outwardly seems sweet and normal. She soon finds her safety and the lives of those closest to her jeopardized as Rebecca’s strange and increasingly murderous true personality emerges. The movie directed by Christian E. Christiansen also co-stars Cam Gigandet and Billy Zane. The Roommate is scheduled to open on February 4, 2011.
In related news, Frizzell was featured as a guest on the latest SciFi Pulse podcast. In the interview, he talks about his score for Legion, working on the TV shows Enterprise and Moonlight and his general approach to scoring movies. To check out the podcast, visit Blog Talk Radio.
