M�RKELEG aka BACKSTABBED, featuring music composed & performed by Alan Howarth (THE LOST EMPIRE, HEADLESS) for the 1996 Danish horror film directed by Martin Schmidt, written by Dennis J�rgensen and starring Line Kruse, Christian Gr�nvall, Mari-Anne Jespersen and Karl Bille.

M�RKELEG aka BACKSTABBED tells the story of four high school friends who gather in an abandoned house to play Backstabbed, a childhood game of murder where they stalk and pretend to kill each other with plastic knives. Unknown to them, a real killer has followed them to the house and it soon becomes apparent that the four friends are no longer playing a game of make-believe and their lives are at stake.

Drawn to the musical style used in the films of John Carpenter, the director, Martin Schmidt, chose to employ Alan Howarth to compose a score similar in tone and structure to his collaborations with Carpenter. For M�RKELEG aka BACKSTABBED, Howarth set out to create a score that would capture the essence of the film, making choices that would give the score a more European flavor. Composed primarily on the Synclavier, Howarth selected the dulcimer as the lead stringed instrument for recurring themes. The score also contains the composer�s trademark haunting synth textures and sampled percussion.

Alan Howarth, in addition to being a composer, is an accomplished sound designer and editor, having worked on films such as STAR TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE, POLTERGEIST, TOTAL RECALL, ARMY OF DARKNESS, BRAM STOKER�S DRACULA, STARGATE and many others. He has been a frequent music collaborator with John Carpenter on his films beginning with ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK in 1980 and including HALLOWEEN II & III, CHRISTINE, BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA, THEY LIVE and PRINCE OF DARKNESS and Alan has scored many films on his own, including THE LOST EMPIRE, RETRIBUTION, HALLOWEEN 4 & 5, THE DENTIST, HEADLESS, BOO! and, most recently, EVILUTION and BASEMENT JACK.
