Hell's Kitty: "Chainsaw Kitty" music video from Smart Media LLC on Vimeo.

Ahead of the March digital and DVD release of the feature film, the filmmakers behind the new horror-comedy Hell’s Kitty have produced an exciting music video for their original song, “Chainsaw Kitty.”

Hell’s Kitty, the movie, is distributed by Wild Eye Releasing on VOD and DVD starting March 13, 2018. The “Chainsaw Kitty” music video was meant to reflect the often schizophrenic personality of the movie’s central antagonist — a supernatural, loving, but possessive cat named Angel. The song is currently available on Amazon and Spotify; soon to be available on iTunes. The music video contains clips from the film and is available to watch on this page.

About the Song:

Writer/director Nicholas Tana [Sticky: A (Self) Love Story], who also appears in the film, worked closely with Hell’s Kitty composer, Richard Albert (Losing Touch), to create music for the film that properly reflects the antagonist, Angel. Angel is a cute and loving cat with an evil, jealous side to her often onerous personality, both supernatural and schizophrenic. “Chainsaw Kitty” was written, performed, and recorded by Albert, with lyrics by Nicholas Tana. The song was originally intended for a scene with Lou Ferrigno (The Incredible Hulk), in which the cat’s claws turned into chainsaws. Though that particular scene was never shot, Tana and producer Denise Acosta loved the music enough to include it in another scene involving Ashley C. Williams (The Human Centipede) and Barbara Nedeljakova (Hostel), rocking out to it on all fours!

About the Soundtrack:

The upcoming Hell’s Kitty soundtrack will be released after the movie is distributed. Appearing on the soundtrack is the Hell’s Kitty theme song, “My Pussy’s Possessed,” which is used as the central score throughout the film.

Tana commented on the theme song:

’My Pussy’s Possessed’ was inspired by my love of the whimsical, haunting compositional style of Danny Elfman, those quirky but memorable Meow Mix commercials from the late 7’0s, and the stirring flying Monkey chants from The Wizard of Oz.

The music for the soundtrack was created as an international collaboration between Tana, who lives in the United States, and Albert, from Germany. Tana wrote most of the lyrics for the songs, as well as some of the melody lines and chord progressions. Albert produced, mastered, and contributed the music, and vocals, for every song.

Albert said of the music:

The choice of musical styles available on the soundtrack is meant to reflect the bizarre and twisted taste of the movie’s main antagonist, Angel, a fiery hell cat with a penchant for ear-shattering rock songs, and a weakness for cheesy ‘80s love songs.

Tana added:

The CATchy combination of rock, death metal, and (even) cheesy love songs, which the album contains, is enough to fulfill nine lives, and have you dancing so hard, you may not always land on your feet.

Also featured on the Hell’s Kitty soundtrack is Brian Adamz, and Down Below, and the pop opera song, “Tonight You’re All I Need,” performed by Hermano Blanco (Nicaragua), produced by Richard Albert, with lyrics written by Nicholas Tana.

Hell’s Kitty Prepares For March Release https://www.yellmagazine.com/hells-kitty-prepares-march-release/122284/ https://www.yellmagazine.com/hells-kitty-prepares-march-release/122284/#respond Sat, 10 Feb 2018 05:50:51 +0000 https://www.yellmagazine.com/?p=122284 Some of horror’s greatest icons have united for the purrfect scare in Hell’s Kitty! Doug Jones (The Shape of Water), Dale Midkiff (Pet Sematary), Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes), Courtney Gains (The Children of the Corn), Lynn Lowry (Cat People), Kelli Maroni (Night of the Comet), Ashley C. Williams (The Human Centipede), Barbara Nedeljakova (Hostel), Adrienne Barbeau (The Fog), John Franklin (The Addams Family), and a Killer Klown team up for some Pawplay this March!

Based on the web series and comic book of the same name, and inspired by writer-director Nicholas Tana’s experiences living with a professedly possessed cat, Hell’s Kitty tells of a covetous feline that acts possessed and possessive of her owner around women. The results are as funny as they are frightening!

Nick (Tana), a Hollywood screenwriter, discovers his cat has become murderously possessed, and will stop at nothing to rid him of any women in his life. As his life unravels out of control, Nick must find a way to have his kitty exorcised of the demonic spirit haunting her and creating a body count.

With characters named after classic horror movie characters (Jones plays Father Damien, Berryman is Detective Pluto, Nina Kate is Dr. Laurie Strodes, Barbeau is Mrs Carrie), and a tone reminiscent of some of the ‘80s greatest horror-comedies, Hell’s Kitty is undoubtedly the horror hiss of March!

Hell’s Kitty is written and directed by Nicholas Tana and produced by Denise Acosta. To kick of the movie release and to share their love for cats, the creators behind the film teamed with Hollyshorts Monthly Screenings and the TLC Chinese Theater organized a premiere at the legendary theater to raise money for FixNation.org. FixNation provides a free, full-time spay/neuter clinic with two full-time veterinarians capable of sterilizing as many as 100 cats per day. They also help hundreds of cats find suitable homes.

Hell’s Kitty is available on all VOD platforms March 13, 2018, and on DVD March 27th, 2018, via Wild Eye Releasing.
