HORROR EXPRESS COMPOSER JOHN CACAVAS DIES 83


Sad to hear of the passing of composer John Cacavas. Famous here for his haunting theme to Spanish horror film, 'HORROR EXPRESS' and Hammer Films 'THE SATANIC RITES OF DRACULA' both starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee... Cacavas worked prolifically with some of the best known US tv shows, including 'Kojak'... I'd easily peg his 'Satanic Rites' theme in my top five Hammer themes, for sure. Cacavas was 83 and had been ill for some time.
