IMDB review by Wizard 8

The Canadian movie "Highpoint" is a strange movie. On one hand, it wants to be a serious homage to the kind of thrillers Alfred Hitchcock made.
But on the other hand, it also wants to be a kind of spoof of those Hitchcock movies. Needless to say, mixing the two tones results in quite a mess. It's obvious that the filmmakers tried to save this in the editing room, but the different tones still result in an inconsistent feeling. It doesn't help that each tone isn't very well done. The mystery angle isn't very clear, and the comedy is painfully unfunny (they even try doing a chase sequence Keystone Kops style.) The movie looks a lot better than most other Canadian movies from the same period (it obviously had an ample budget), but its slickness doesn't hide its unsatisfying soul. Only for viewers who really want to see how Canadians would do Hitchcock... or who want to see Christopher Plummer sport a ridiculous-looking moustache.

Unforgettable music.

Attached to forgettable films.

Chris certainly had something special going on with The Dorm that dripped blood (still a fav). He then went back to the school of rip offs mid 80's to perfect his craft, leaving us with the fun of saying in such things as Wheels of Fire "Heeey that's the Blue Max" lol

Great thread, Chris is the best! The two themes from Getting Even can be heard in the ''U-Boats: The Wolfpack'' cd. Recycling at its best! :)

Nice one zerokomma. Christopher Young seems to have crept up on us through the years without the fanfare he deserves. I'm hoping as this thread develops it restores a little balance to the universe lol.

Now here's the big call out... ffshrine people b b b bring me your Chris Young material... articles, music,pictures, anecdotes , gossip, have you met him, anything to make this place the bees knees when it comes to the multicoloured maestro of musical mayhem . Anything will be appreciated. cheers everyone.

Very cool post. CY is wonderful.
There is no doubt. I appreciate
the informational links as well
as the performances.

Thanks.

Creation,

Thread 217718

Nice! Still this thread is incomplete... Is it a work in progress? Are you planning to continue?

Anyone have Murder at 1600 the Intrada promo? 13 tracks 50 minutes?

Wanted to add that, aside from being a wonderful composer, Christopher Young is also one of the nicest human beings I've met. We used to run into each other shopping for music in Westwood, CA. This was in the mid 80's to early 90's, when record shops still existed. Miss those days!! Anyone interested in sharing more of this gifted composer, this should be the thread for it!!
