I assumed it'd be more likely a single song (end credits?) especially since Dolph seems to be the one who knows them (being Swedish and all, attending the ST premiere) but I may be wrong...

I'm not sure at all either, I just assumed that because of their website (that has a "film score" section only filled by a "coming soon" mention) :wink:

Here is the answer:
our song ”Mouth” is to be included in the film ”Don’t Kill It!” directed by the one and only Mike Mendez. It’s liberating to be included in a film like this as it’s not what The Lost Poets is about, really. One would think that we’d only be featured in darker, more serious productions, but this is a movie about slashing demons! Also starring Dolph Lundgren by the way. He’s really into what we do and has been helping us a lot to get established in the US

Mike Mendez' segment in Tales of Halloween is really cheesy and pretty stupid. But I wouldn't use it as any basis of judgement on this film as it's essentially a single joke premise and more of a parody than this film will likely be.

However the female police detective in the main TOH segment is playing the female police detective in Don't Kill It and I found her great in the role. So that's a huge bonus for me.

She seems to have worked on a few things with Mendez including the film he did right before, THE LAST HEIST. She looks like a genuine actress with some personality and depth. And she maybe be younger than D but she's not 24 or 26 either...

Our movie Don't Kill It screened in Cannes w great feedback! I'm so sad I missed it! #shouldawouldacoulda We saw a glimpse of a trailer last Friday that was leaked on #EW but then sadly taken down 24 hrs later but in which time it had over 5k views! Hoping that's a sign for the future of this awesome @madmanmendez helmed flick!

Yes, definitely not a bland eye candy/producer's girlfriend type. She actually looks like she'd be a police officer in real life.

Seems the version screened at the Cannes Market was not the final cut.
