The Blackcoat’s Daughter – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack LP – Elvis Perkins

Originally titledFebruary, Osgood Perkins’ debut film was a festival hit in 2015 and has now been picked up for wider distribution by A24 under a new title,The Blackcoat’s Daughter. The film is a bleakly desolate slow burn, harkening back to such classics asRosemary’s Baby&Let’s Scare Jessica to Deathwith its brooding atmosphere and emphasis on perpetual unease and dread rather than jump scares. It’s a remarkable debut, signalling the arrival of a real talent.
