Plot
College freshman Nina Theopholis  (Erin Cahill) returns home for summer break to stay with her parents Nick (Thaao Penghlis) and Mary (Kelly LeBrock) in their hundred year old dream house.  When the lights go out one day, a mysterious, young electrician Jeff (Shiloh Strong) answers the call.  While repairing the house's outdated wiring, Jeff uncovers a hidden chamber built into the adjacent hillside.  The secret room looks directly into the luxurious master bath through a double sided mirror...

Music Needed
 
  • Two upbeat techno cues, with ambient grooves, then hard-hitting rhythms.  These need to be fun pieces, not too hardcore, and must have some nice breaks.  These are used as a bed as Nina, the leading girl, talks about the crazy things that have been going on in her house and in her life.

     
  • An electronic cue that is more weird, experimental, as the two young leads in the film, Jeff and Nina, film each other.  This piece is psychedelic and can have a weird thumping groove and a moog-type feel.

     
  • A slowly driving and cool track similar to “Trainspotting" by Primal Scream with some subtle changes and breaks with guitar and keyboard riffs so that it doesn't feel a never ending bed.  Listen to that track for a better idea of what is being sought.  This is the longest cue of the film and will be used twice!

     
  • A loud fun rock/poppy party song, for what else, a party.

     
  • A piece of rock source music, that Nina is listening to while talking on the phone.  Think blink 182.

     
  • An uplifting rock song, bittersweet and cool, that starts as Nina and Jeff figure out the mystery of the Mirror, then as they kiss almost by accident.  This then leads us into an end credit.

     
  • Song for the end credits.  This can be fun and rock out but needs to be more pop than punk.  Think Smash Mouth or Blink 182.

    1930s-style music
    Music is also needed for the 1930s flashback scenes but the songs need to sound authentic, like they were written and performed back then.  These are source type cues that are also used as score.
     
  • 30's music fast honky tonk piano, think "Ridin' High" by Cole Porter
  • 30's Cab Calloway "Take me back to Old Whazoo"
  • a nice-nostalgic sounding song for an intro to 30 scene
  • source music during a love scene from the 30's

    Lastly, please submit Greek traditional folk music if you have it!
