Once you open the box ...you can't escape it

Howlin' Wolf Records proudly presents Christoph Allerstorfer's score for THE JACK IN THE BOX. In early discussions with the composer, Director Lawrence Fowler envisioned a score in the tradition of classic horror films. THE JACK IN THE BOX was recorded in Vienna using a small ensemble of musicians, which the composer skillfully blends with modern scoring techniques, to craft a richly textured score.

Composer Christoph Allerstorfer has a fantastic ability to find the perfect sound to not only complement and enhance the most intense action-based scenes, but also compose the most sentimental of pieces to throw the audience into the head of our characters during quiet emotional moments.

- Lawrence Fowler, Director

THE JACK IN THE BOX features a 16-page booklet with a foreword by Director Lawrence Fowler and liner notes by Composer Christoph Allerstorfer, all beautifully packaged with designs by Howlin' Wolf Records Art Director Luis Miguel Rojas.
