Steve Solomos

Steve Solomos, if you know your filmmakers, has his fingerprints all over some of the most mind-bending, genre-hopping projects from the last few years. Seriously, the guy’s been around. Crimes of the Future (2022) – that wild, body horror trip from Cronenberg? Yeah, he’s in the mix. That movie, not exactly a Sunday afternoon watch with grandma, is the kind of flick that gets under your skin (literally, if you get the reference). Then there’s Possessor (2020), which just cranks up the weirdness another notch. It’s sci-fi, but with that disturbing, gritty edge—think corporate espionage but everyone’s got a neural implant and the lines between minds get blurry in… let’s say, some very uncomfortable ways. Solomos’ work here, it’s not just background noise; it’s the kind of contribution that helps build that tense, unnerving vibe you can’t shake off. And then—just when you think he’s all about creepy futures and psychological meltdowns—he flips the script with The Clark Sisters: First Ladies of Gospel (2020). Gospel music, powerhouse vocals, drama that hits you right in the feels. Here, Solomos helps capture those emotional highs and lows, the kind of family tension and triumph that’s got nothing to do with body horror but everything to do with heart. So, whether you’re into brain-bending sci-fi or soul-stirring musical drama, Solomos has probably worked on something you’ve binged (or at least heard people obsess about online). This guy’s range? Wild.
