Music guides us through the path of a film; A piece of emotion resonating with each note sending you into heaven or hell or any of the vast areas in-between. The best a composer can do is to recognize the heart of a film and translate it musically (some say magically) into something brilliant. Marks music intertwines with emotions giving us the essence of the film. -Diane De LaRose

From: http://xviews.extremehorrorcinema.com/flowers-2/
I could say a lot about the incredible score by Mark Kueffner, like how it enriched and elevated the film far beyond what Phil Stevens or I imagined. FLOWERS is more than just another low-budget horror flick and this haunting melody is proof that there’s a certain emotional depth there that’s usually missing from the genre. Mark recognized the movie’s heart and translated it musically. Ronnie Sorter, Editor
