SOUNDTRACK REVIEW:
As tacky as it sounds, I actually got a cheap thrill reviewing
this 51-minute soundtrack album.
Twelve
out of the 24 tracks on this disc are dialogue recordings
from Rob Zombie’s re-imagining of John Carpenter’s
horror movie. And each one of them had me chuckling and sniggering
how cheesy they were.
Check
out lines like: “We are dealing with a soulless killing
machine driven by pure animal instinct!”; “It
sounds to me like you are talking about the anti-Christ!”
and “I thought she couldn’t stand the stress of
being labeled Satan’s mother.” And who wouldn’t
laugh at 12-second track named “The Scream” which
consists of well, a 12-second high and shrill scream.
The
rest of the album (note: parent advisory caution with explicit
content) contains 1970s rock music like Blue Oyster Cult’s
catchy “(Don’t Fear) The Reaper” and Kiss’
scarily noisy “God of Thunder”. Elsewhere, listen
out for the somewhat dated but thrilling “Tom Sawyer”
by Rush and “1969” by Iggy Pop.
Tyler
Bates contributes two score tracks on this album, and they
are a hoot to listen to. While “The Shape Stalks Laurie”
evokes a scarily cheesy image of a monster lurking in the
background, it is “Halloween Theme 2007” that
will rock your socks off. The famous theme will leave you
giggling and snorting at how horror pictures like these will
make you laugh and cry at the same time.
