Product Description
"George A. Romero's Land of the Dead" is the acclaimed director's long-awaited return to the horror genre he invented, beginning with the seminal "Night of the Living Dead" and continuing with "Dawn of the Dead" and "Day of the Dead." In this new tale, Romero creates a harrowing vision of a modern-day world where the walking dead roam an uninhabited wasteland and the living try to lead "normal" lives behind the walls of a fortified city.

A new society has been built by a handful of enterprising, ruthless opportunists, who live in the towers of a skyscraper, high above the hardscrabble existence on the streets below. But outside the city walls, an army of the dead is evolving. Inside, anarchy is on the rise. With the very survival of the city at stake, a group of hardened mercenaries is called into action to protect the living from an army of the dead.

The terrifying and contemporary score is by the composers of "Run Lola Run," Reinhold Heil and Johnny Klimek.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing Score........2005-10-21

Wow, words can barely express the awesomeness of this piece. First I will start with the movie, brilliant! That is all there is to be said about the film. Now the OST, beautiful work. A very dark and somber piece, very moody and atmospheric. Its not something you just listen to for fun, at least for me. Its more of a background music, while doing your business. Its just brilliant. Every track in amazing from beginning to end. I was unfamiliar with Johnny Klimek and Reinhold Heild's work. This cd however makes me want to definatly look into it. It is the perfect sound to go along with the dark nature of the film. Some tracks are very tranquil and moody, while others pound out beats and are very fast paced. All in all a 5/5 for the cd, a definate must have for any collection! Highly recommneded!

4 out of 5 stars Subtle score has Carpenter like muscle.......2005-08-19

One of the things that I first noticed while watching Land of the Dead was its lack of a "memorable" score. Unlike the entries that have proceeded it (Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, and Day of the Dead) there was no moment in Land of the Dead where I took notice of the music, it just faded into the other ambient noise of the picture - you know, the screams, groans, gun shots, explosions and other things one expects to hear during a George A. Romero zombie movie. I guess it could be argued that the post production time was so short (Universal Studios shot the release time forward by five months in an attempt to turn a small movie into a Big Summer Movie) and Romero's pacing of the film so breathless, that composers Reinhold Heil and Johnny Klimek did not have time to construct a more traditional score (creating distinctive themes for certain characters - though there is a hint of one for Big Daddy - and motifs to play off each other as the story unfolds). That is not to say that the soundtrack is bad. It is actually a strong John Carpenter styled score that perfectly captures the bleak mood, building tension and sudden outbreaks of extreme violence that run through what just might be the last zombie movie to be written and directed by George A. Romero. Horror/Sci-fi soundtrack fans, Romero fans, and even John Carpenter fans should enjoy it. Recommended.

5 out of 5 stars George A Romero's Land of the Dead.......2005-08-05

It was like watching the movie all over again. As you listened you felt like you was right there back in the seat at the theater facing the undead!!!! Buy this CD. It is a perfect way to remeber where you was when George released the undead upon you.

4 out of 5 stars Great soundtrack.......2005-07-11

I loved the movie, I think the only way you can't love the movie is if you like your zombies of the fast footed variety (ZING!). The soundtrack in the film was great, creepy, exciting, I have no complaints.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome soundtrack!!!.......2005-07-09

I'm something of a soundtrack junkie and a Romero fan to boot. I have to admit, I didn't really appreciate the soundtrack in the theater...but after purchasing the CD I'm hooked.

Its an awesome soundtrack. A really substantial experience with 30+ tracks. It has jumped to my top ten fav soundtracks.

See the movie! Shorter than most Romero fans would like - but an interesting addition to the lineage.
