From Variety:

Paul Dunlap, a composer whose scores included such sci-fi and horror classics as "The Angry Red Planet" and "I Was a Teenage Werewolf," died of natural causes March 11 in Palm Springs, Calif. He was 90.

Dunlap launched his film-scoring career with a 1950 Sam Fuller film, "The Baron of Arizona," and did four more for the director: "The Steel Helmet," "Park Row," "Shock Corridor" and "The Naked Kiss." But he was best known for his music for low-budget horror and sci-fi of the 1950s and 1960s including "Lost Continent," "Target Earth," "I Was a Teenage Frankenstein," "Blood of Dracula" and "Frankenstein 1970."


Rest In Peace, sir.
