008 Horror – Old
The Devil’s Violin by
Lucy Rivers, originally from 2014, featured Rivers’ score on the violin. Hannah is a 16-year-old girl living in a
council estate flat with her hopelessly non-functioning mother and “demon” baby
brother, Gethin. (Actually, all the
characters said Gethin was demonic, but he never really demonstrated it, other
than having a fondness for black cats and dead rats and being obese. I wonder if that tag was only included
because of Labyrinth?) Hannah has had to
drop out of school and does everything for her lazy, helpless mother whose
boyfriend, “Meathead,” abuses her. One
night, Hannah hears enrapturing violin music coming from an abandoned building
across the street. There, she meets the
mysterious violinist. To get her own
violin like his, she has to bring materials—dead bodies.
