STORYLINE: Jack (Roddy Piper) is a building superintendent, Jack is a simple man with simple needs. He just wants to be left in peace so that he can get on with reading his book. But the tenants living in his building are always in need of him for something. Fix this, replace that, unblock this toilet. However, when the power goes out in the building the culprit is not a blown fuse or faulty wiring it is two of the tenants who have opened a portal to hell in the basement of the building. If Jack doesn’t close the portal and stop Great Cthulhu rising from his watery tomb city then the entire building, no, the entire world will go down the pan. – Mark A Wood

Future won “Best Score – Feature Film” at the Genre Blast Film Festival (2017) by composer Steve Greene. Recorded, mixed and mastered here at the Battle Chamber.

To hear a track from Future, visit our Sounds page. Check out the film trailer here.

Check out this blurb from Film Threat magazine: “The fascinating part of Future is that it’s not necessarily about Doug being sent to kill a future bad guy, though that is a part of the story. It’s more about the relationship between Doug and the Time Traveler. Doug is the guy who has wasted his life to this point. The Time Traveler, on the other hand, has schemed his way with many other saps, like Doug, and gets off on being there for the final days of someone’s life. He promotes falling into hedonistic desires and goes along with it. It’s this conflicting relationship that makes the story of Future so clever and different. This genre is in desperate need of both of those elements.”

New York Ninja playing on Showtime Networks, The Movie Channel Xtra

New York Ninja is playing on Showtimes Networks, The Movie Channel Xtra on Wednesday, February 1st at 2:15am

From Showtimes website: The peaceful life of average working man, John, is shattered by the brutal murder of his pregnant wife. Disillusioned by the police’s slow response, John takes to the streets as a sword-wielding vigilante hell bent on cleaning up New York City crime and corruption. But as his quest for justice gains notoriety, a mysterious villain known only as the Plutonium Killer sets his sights on the New York ninja. This over-the-top cult classic was recently restored thirty-five years after being abandoned during production.

The Original Motion Picture to New York Ninja, by Voyag3r, was recorded, mixed and mastered by Steve Greene here at the Battle Chamber and was released on Digital, CD, Cassette and Vinyl by Mondo/Deathwaltz. The film was completed and released by Vinegar Syndrome and edited and re-directed by Kurtis Spieler.

Here is what the New York Times had to say about New York Ninja: The 1984 kung fu film was shot, but it wasn’t completed. Now, with a new director and newly recorded dialogue, the film sees the light of day.

The names of most of the original cast and crew are lost to time, and Spieler said Vinegar Syndrome tried to find Liu but wasn’t able to. This gave Spieler the chance to start fresh with the audio, commissioning a synth-heavy retro score by the Detroit band Voyag3r and fielding a murderer’s row of genre-film stalwarts to dub the actors.

Don’t miss your chance to see New York Ninja in the comfort of your own home! To listen to some of the New York Ninja score, by Voyag3r, visit our Sounds page. To pick up a copy of the soundtrack, visit the Official Voyag3r Store.

About the Film New York Ninja

Originally directed by and starring martial arts actor John Liu (The Secret Rivals, Invincible Armor) in his only American production, New York Ninja was filmed entirely on 35mm in 1984, but the project was abandoned during production resulting in all original sound materials being lost over time. 35 years later, Vinegar Syndrome acquired the original unedited camera negative and painstakingly constructed and completed the film. Enlisting the voice talents of genre favorites: Don “The Dragon” Wilson (Bloodfist, Whatever It Takes), Linnea Quigley (Return of the Living Dead, Nightmare Sisters), Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes, Auntie Lee’s Meat Pies), Vince Murdocco (Night Hunter, LA Wars), Matt Mitler (The Mutilator, Battle for the Lost Planet), Leon Isaac Kennedy (Lone Wolf McQuade, Penitentiary), Ginger Lynn Allen (The Devil’s Rejects, Vice Academy), and Cynthia Rothrock (China O’Brien, Martial Law) Vinegar Syndrome Pictures is extremely proud to present this truly one of kind film experience. Restored in 4K from the original camera elements, New York Ninja is finally available in all of its ridiculous over-the-top glory for the first time ever after spending nearly four decades in film obscurity.

Directed by: John Liu and Kurtis Spieler
2021 / 93 min / 1.85:1 / English 2.0 Stereo

Steve-Greene-noir-city-streets-and-macabre

On Friday, December 4, 2020 Steve Greene has a new release – Noir, City Streets and Macabre. Dark, eerie synths swirl and bounce from ear to ear as you are systematically being stalked by an unknown and unyielding sinister force. Darkness has fallen as time runs out for your world.

Steve Greene (Detroit-based multi-instrumentalist/producer/film composer and keyboardist in the band Voyag3r) has a new 2-song release to close out the year. Noir, City Streets and Macabre is minimal, dark, twisted and sonically frames a dystopian setting where likely no one survives.

These tracks were recorded back in 2017 for 2 different compilation albums, celebrating the Halloween season. Steve Greene has freshly remastered these tracks for this release, through BandCamp.

Recorded, mixed and mastered by Steve Greene at his studio, The Battle Chamber, and cover art by Los Angeles based artist John Bergin, Noir, City Streets and Macabre is sure to haunt and terrify you.

Gear used: Moog MiniTaur, Alpha Juno 2, Alesis Ion, SCI SixTrak, GreeneBeam, Rhodes Mark V, rain stick, various hand percussion.

Our EP is inspired by the Tiki Motel most famous as a key location as the protagonists hideout in ‘The Terminator’. We were inspired by the idea of the last days before the internet and the stories of people finding refuge or pausing at a sun bleached motel in a forgotten corner of 1980s Los Angeles. ‘555 Tiki Motel’ is our most mature album yet with three brooding heartfelt songs and two swampy b-side-tracks. Virginian Americana singer-songwriter Joseph Gearheart is the featured artist while the Swampers Damn Lieutenant Evert , Earl Jr Jackson Black , Geoff Mason, Don Jon and Romantic Ronan from Europe and Canada form the Swamp Music Players. A thoughtful and strange EP it harkens back to 1980s Americana and Retro Rock. Mixed and Mastered in Detroit at the Battle Chamber by Steve Greene it has a very American feel.
