About
Phantom of the Paradise (1974)
This cult gothic musical comedy is written and directed by Brian De Palma (Carrie, Scarface) and scored by and starring Paul Williams (Bugsy Malone) and Jessica Harper (Suspiria).
The film follows a naïve young singer-songwriter who is tricked by legendary but unscrupulous music producer, Swan, into sacrificing his life's work. In revenge, the songwriter dons a menacing new persona and proceeds to terrorize Swan's new concert hall, insisting his music be performed by his most adored singer, Phoenix (Jessica Harper).
The plot is a loose adaptation of Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray and The Phantom of the Opera. It was considered a failure on its release but has seen achieved cult classic status making it a perfect watch for our final 90 Minute Movie Club of the year.
