Being Human returns for a monster third season, with Mitchell, George and Nina relocated to Barry in Wales and Annie stuck in purgatory. Werewolves, vampires and even a zombie inevitably interfere with their attempts to lead a normal life. 

 

Switch

Take four girls, add some flirting, stir in a quantity of heady rebelliousness, a pinch of risk-taking, several spoonfuls of true friendship and Stella, Jude, Grace and Hannah are born.  Four young twenty somethings based in London’s Camden Town who just happen to be witches! 



Behind the curtains of their north London home they hide a secret, which has fostered the strongest of bonds – they are members of a witches coven and spells are the thing they do best!


Mutant Chronicles

Simon Hunter’s action/ horror movie Mutant Chronicles stars Ron Pearlman, Thomas Jane and John Malkovich. It tells a futuristic tale set in 2707, infused with steam punk aesthetics.

Simon asked Richard to score his original short film for Mutant Chronicles and a year later, he had faith to sign up Richard to compose the music for Mutant Chronicles the feature film.

As well as orchestra the score features a plethora of unusual instruments. The music has received excellent reviews and was voted the second best movie/ TV soundtrack of 2009. 

Being Human Series 2

Touchpaper TV's drama about a werewolf (Russell Tovey), a vampire (Aidan Turner) and a ghost (Lenora Critchlow) flat-sharing in Bristol has been a huge hit for BBC3 winning many awards including Best New Programme at the 2010 Broadcast awards.

The second series continues where series 1 left off and is a darker and more sinister affair, whilst still retaining the trademark humour from series 1.

A third series starts shooting in June 2010

Doghouse

Doghouse is Richard's third collaboration with Jake West. It tells the story of six men with mid-life anxiety setting out for a weekend in a country village, in an attempt to reconnect with their masculinity, and help one of their friends get over his divorce.

But their fun-filled break soon segues into a living nightmare when they discover that the village's female populous has succumbed to a mysterious virus that has turned them into ravenous man eating creatures.

The score was recorded in Studio 1 at Air-Lyndhurst and mixed in L.A. by Mary Curry at his Friarworks Studio.

Being Human Series 1

Being Human is BBC3's witty, exciting and extraordinary look at the friendship between three twenty-something outsiders, a werewolf, a vampire and a ghost, trying to find their way in an enticing yet complicated world.

It mixes the mythic with the commonplace, the farcical with the horrific, and the domestic with the epic.

Evil Aliens

Jaw-dropping late night lunacy comes courtesy of director Jake West's manic follow-up to Razor Blade Smile.

This is a hilarious horror genre blender about a disreputable cable television team investigating a wild alien abduction story involving intergalactic impregnation on a remote farming island off the Welsh coast. Even if the UFO story isn't true the program makers intend to fake it - until they too face the Predator-like space creatures full on for a bloody close encounter.

 

Ong-bak

Thai stuntman Tony Jaa makes his starring debut in this award winning martial arts action film directed by Prachya Pinkaew.

Ting (Jaa), a young man living in a village in rural Thailand is schooled in the martial art of Muay Thai. When his village's Buddha head is stolen, he is sent to Bangkok and finds himself plunged into the big city's seething criminal underworld. Forced to use his fighting skills to dispatch a parade of thugs, his quest leads him to the criminal mastermind who stole the Buddha head. 

Richard's score was written in 2005 for Contender Entertainment's UK theatrical release of Ong-bak.
