SISSY SPACEK as CARRIE WHITE CARRIE (1976) dir. Brian De Palma
The eyes, chico. They never lie.
Phantom of the Paradise by Brian De Palma.
A perfect reimagining of Leroux's 1910 novel.
This is a deranged, romantic, and quirky comedy horror with a perfect soundtrack.

Happy 70th Suicidal Swan Sells His Soul To Satan Saturday Sunday
TRAAAANSCRIPTIONWEEEN.
Got sidetracked from sewing together my Phoenix costume doing this, whoops. I mean hey, at least this was sort of productive. That's two Phantom tracks down, 43 to go.
Happy 49th anniversary, Phantom Of The Paradise!
just gonna plug this fan restoration here - dr. saperstein restores a lot of original footage and uncensors those ugly bird mattes throughout the film, which were edited in last-minute to conceal any trace of the "Swan Song" label (of which Death Records is a subsidiary), as the copyright for Swan Song Records was nabbed by Led Zeppelin a mere five months before the film's release.
The restoration itself has some video editing/color grading issues but they're not too hard to get past
you can read more about the whole debacle here
phantom of the paradise for free on the internet archive my love
i've come to some sort of revelation
Another transcription!! I'm real proud of this one.
This is the track that plays as Winslow first enters the Paradise, donning his iconic leather suit and mask. I kinda had to make up the title and I wasn't entirely sure who to credit, since this song wasn't included on the official soundtrack. I absolutely love all the string trio/piano tracks used throughout Phantom, it's such a shame they never got an official release...
