Worth buying for laughter lines.......2004-04-04
As movie soundtracks go this isn't bad. Obviously not all the tracks are in the movie and that horrible "inspired by" tag should be here too. The disc is worth buying for Laughter Lines alone the rest of the tracks are medicore and pedistrien at best. Laughter Lines is by an Irish band Sack They are unbeatable
Far Inferior to Carrie Soundtrack.......2003-04-09
The soundtrack for the film "Carrie" is an incredible album and well worth every penny. "The Rage: Carrie 2", an embarassingly shallow remake (no, not sequel, REMAKE), once again proves just how horrible it is with this "soundtrack" which mostly contains music by various artists in order to sustain the film's "hip" status. The scariest part of the whole "Rage" project is that studio executives at MGM actually had it made, and this album, which should really be a compilation of punk/gothic music and not pose as a soundtrack, continues to prove that.
I just loved.......2002-09-30
I saw the movie few days ago and remembered the soundtrack.. man, it's just so cool, actually it's the perfect music for the kind of movie that it is.. I really recommended if you like rock
Pretty cool.......2001-06-19
I really like the hard rock music on this soundtrack. I'm addicted to it and can't stop listening. My absolute favorite is "Sleep" by Trailer Park Pam. Tracks 3, 6, and 8 are somewhat heavy, but they really rock! "Spark Somebody Up" by Buddha Monk is the only annoying song on here. Overall, the cd is pretty awesome(even though it only includes three songs from the movie #'s 1, 6, & 12.) I think a lot of the songs focus on Rachael, and they would've fit the movie perfectly.
Where is the sixth star?.......2000-12-09
I never thought a soundtrack could be so seductive, and at the same time, so addictive. This mastery of unheard-of bands all on one CD has put this fabulous album in a home in my CD player, and has added a few more bands to my list of favorites. With the very heavy grindstone guitar playing talents of the members of 5 X Down, 16 Volt, RA, and Type O Negative, this CD is a must-have for any heavy metal fan. Perhaps the highlight of this entire album is the monster rock ballad "Looking Down The Barrel" by 5 X Down, which very effectively illustrates the darkness of the movie. However, this fabulous album not only touches those fans of the hard, hard rock genre, but the fans of the lighter, calmer, crisper sounds with the breathtaking "Quick, Painless, And Easy" by Ivy, which gives you a type of sympathy for the doomed Rachel. Other tracks by Sack, Trailer Park Pam, Kate Shrock, and 10 Watt Mary give the same effect. And for the all-out alternative genre fans, there is the one fantastic track by L.A.X.. This song is a fast-paced alternative ballad with catchy lyrics, and a great beat to boot.
However, with all the great pieces of art in life, there are the flukes. The fluke on this peerless album is the track by Buddha Monk. To be honest, I hate this song. Although the title of this track can relate to the movie in a way, it in no way goes along with the mood the other songs create. Bad decision of the record company, in my opinion.
With twelve out of thirteen songs definitely being keepers on one CD, you can't go wrong by purchasing it. Perhaps the best thing about album is the use of the bands that are virtually unheard of. Most people count that as a bad thing on a soundtrack, but on this particular one, the bands they chose make you want to love, hate, and embrace Rachel Lang all at once, which is the purpose of a soundtrack; to finesse the movie that inspires it

Themes of Horror.......2004-03-07
I liked this CD very much.If you are into horror movies like Halloween and Friday the 13th you will like this CD.However in my opinion the only good music on this CD is the Friday the 13th theme by Harry Manfredini.I am not really a fan of pchyco or pinhead.If you are into to those horror characters then I reccomend this CD.

In 1976, Carrie made a star of Sissy Spacek, a bankable first-tier director of Brian DePalma, and a household name of horror writer Stephen King (on whose first novel the film was based). Newcomers John Travolta, Amy Irving, and Nancy Allen didn't do so bad for themselves either.
But like the solid efforts of many film composers, Pino Donaggio's work went largely unheralded at the time, though DePalma would reward him with no less than five more scoring assignments in the years to come. Ironically, Donaggio was the director's second choice; the first, Bernard Herrmann, died just hours after the final recording session for Scorsese's Taxi Driver in December, 1975.
For the Carrie, score, Donaggio descends from the breezy string and flute arrangements that introduce the innocence of the title character into a darkening orchestral maelstrom as the troubled telekinetic Carrie suffers increasingly harsh indignities at the hands of her schoolmates and madly fundamentalist mother. Like his peers Morricone and Rota, Donaggio often understates the most dramatic scenes of his projects; the famed school prom hell storm scene is accompanied merely by rumbling sustained chords from the strings beneath subtly disquieting electronic effects. Ryko's interspersing of dialogue clips is especially effective here, particularly the chilling rantings of Piper Laurie as Carrie's mother. --Jerry McCulley

What's there and what's not..........2006-04-02
The producers of this soundtrack seemed to omit everything that wasn't done by Pino Donaggio. What IS there is excellent, especially the Theme from "Carrie" and "Mother At the Top of the Stairs," which is a brillant homage to those 200+ year old hymns found in church songbooks around the world. One song is only partially included; "I Never Dreamed Someone Like You Could Love Soneone Like Me." In the movie, there's an instrumental break where Tommy and Carrie talk about why he asked her to the prom. The version on this soundtrack omits this break, making the song shorter and, to me, not as enjoyable.
As others have mentioned, there are several pieces that are outright missing. The most notable one is that great song that's playing when Carrie and friends enter the gym; a song called "Education Blues" by Vance Or Towers. It's a party rock tune that foreshadowed the New Wave revolution that would come in the '80s, and slightly different in the movie than on their obscure 1975 LP. BIG oversight.
Also as some have previously mentioned, the Moog-style music when the guys are shopping for tuxedos and the girls are in detention are gone, presumably because they weren't the classical string arrangements that Donaggio seems to prefer. So the comic relief is also missing.
Due to the high cost of music licensure, I can understand why Martha & The Vandella's "Heat Wave" is missing, yet it was the backdrop for one of the movie's most memorable scenes with Nancy Allen and John Travolta. Still, this song is widely available. What is NOT, and is missing from this soundtrack, is the song playing in the background of that "other" Travolta / Allen scene, the notorious parking scene. In the background is a song that might be called "Pretty Lady" or "Pretty Baby," and is uncredited on the DVD of the movie. I've been trying to figure out what it is for years. If you happen to know, your e-mail would answer a now 30 year-old question.
With the running time that today's CDs afford, the omissions of these tracks is inexcusable, and I would have preferred them to the added dialogue snippets that differentiate this CD from the original vinyl product. Still, what IS present has never sounded better. Donaggio's brilliant, complimentary score demonstrates why he is one of the all-time great film composers!
The first 90 seconds are absolutely breathtaking.......2004-12-06
I can easily understand why some people hate Donaggio. Let's face it--he's a throbbing cliche of an Italian composer. From the 101-strings school of Italianate melodicism. There's too much of those soaring strings and not enough instrumental variety.
The first 90 seconds on this record is the most achingly scrumptious piece of music ever written. Unfortunately, it doesn't have its own name. It's subsumed under the title THEME FROM CARRIE. I refer to it as INTRO TO THE THEME FROM CARRIE.
Regarding I NEVER DREAMED. Sung by the breathadelic Katie Irving. Her vocal high-point is when she sings "I'm the girl with the strawberry hair in the photograph". Katie might have a technically wimpy voice (it's the exact opposite of an operatic voice), but I value her wimpfest more than anything ever sung by an opera singer.
MOTHER AT THE TOP is Herrmannesque to a fault. And as much as I begrudge CONTEST WINNERS for being a repetition of THEME FROM CARRIE, it really redeems itself at the end with a really sweet passage. FOR THE LAST TIME has that fab sinister motif. There's one dud track and it's a ham-fisted thing called COLLAPSE OF CARRIE'S HOUSE.

Best movie soundtrack ever........2003-11-20
I'm in love with the movie Carrie. It's such an intense experience to watch, and the performances are all amazing. So the movie was different than the book. Most movies are! This, in my opinion, is the ONLY Stephen King book that worked well on the big screen besides Misery. Brian De Palma's direction was excellent, and the instrumental soundtrack is just amazing. I wish i could rate this soundtrack cd much higher. It's great moody music to listen to when you're alone. It's very personal music and will not only remind you of the different scenes from the film, but it will also take you on a journey within yourself. The liner notes in the cd do an analysis of the tracks and what direction the composer was going in with each track. You also get dialogue clips from the film, and you also get the two beautiful songs sung in the background at the prom. Those songs should have gotten the woman who sung them a recording contract. Does she have an album or cd of songs out? I'd sure like to know. She has an amazing voice!! The sound of Pino's score is crisp and beautiful on the cd. The violins and flutes and cellos are so sharp and clear that you'd swear they were in the room with you playing. I can't imagine anyone who loved the film not being moved by this soundtrack score. It's beyond words how beautiful and haunting the tracks are. There is a sense of innocence and peace and beauty in some of the tracks. You can feel Carrie's innocence in those tracks. On the darker tracks you can feel the undercurrent of horror that is always present, sometimes subtle and sometimes in-your-face, but always there. Every track on the cd is important to those who have seen the film and love it. There are absolutely no filler tracks here. You can practically follow along with the events in the movie just by listening to the cd. I give this soundtrack ten stars. It's so beautiful and exciting and wonderful to listen to. I'm so glad Pino was chosen to score this movie. It would have not had the same emotional impact to the movie had someone else been chosen. I'm thrilled this is finally on cd. Anyone who is a fan of the movie NEEDS to buy this immediately. You will not regret it at all!!
I can't believe it !!.......2002-06-06
I have been searching for this soundtrack for 20 years !!I can't believe that I finally found it !! Although I actually haven't received it yet ,I know that i will love it !! When I want to here the songs from Carrie I have to put the movie on !!! This is fantastic! You guys are wondeful. I've found many obscure items from you and I will definately continue to shop here. Thank you so much !! Brad Musseau.

Perhaps not *quite* what you want..........2007-04-27
If you're like me and you have a hankering for "film noir music," you're probably thinking of a lonely sax playing an urban, 3 AM melodic line, backed by some bluesy chords from a small jazz ensemble. Like John Barry's excellent theme from "Body Heat," for example, or something like Jerry Goldsmith's theme for "Chinatown."
Never mind the fact that the great majority of films noir from the classic period (1941-1955) didn't have jazzy background music like that at all, but was usually scored with quasi-classical romantic string music (with a solo violin) or bombastic, brass-heavy instrumentals.
Anyway, this CD isn't the 3 AM sax stuff.
Not to say that there isn't some of that on here. You might like "Godfather" (not, however, the theme you're thinking of from the Francis Ford Coppola Godfather films), or "Blues for Guylaine," or even the bluesy passages from Bernard Herrmann's "Taxi Driver" suite.
But there's some odd stuff on here that causes me to wonder how, precisely, it qualifies as "film noir."
For instance, the dreamy carnival music from "The Elephant Man," or the angular string music in "Buckets of Blood" (from "Carrie," not the Roger Corman film). Seems like a reach. The first cut, "Turning Pages" had me unpleasantly surprised, and triggered my I've been ripped-off alarm. And "Chop Shop" has a wah guitar that sounds a lot more like a 70's blaxsploitation film than film noir.
The inclusion of Angelo Badalamenti helps redeem the collection; his music for "Twin Peaks," "Fire, Walk With Me" and "Mulholland Drive" redefines what a noir theme should sound like.
This CD is odd, no doubt about it. "Godfather," which sounds decidedly noirish, is from a comedy/drama film about a man who's paid to impregnate lesbians. "The Wrong Man" music is relentlessly perky but comes from a bona fide noir. (Okay, a Hitchcock noir, not quite the same thing.)
The key here, I guess, is to enlarge the scope of what you think noir film music ought to be... But perhaps a better title for this collection of music might have been "Neo-Noir!"
Still, credit must be given to liner notes writer Eddie Muller and his Film Noir Foundation for at least directing the current noir wave. His book "Dark City" turned me - and probably many others - to noir. Long may his tribe increase!
Summary: If you're looking for classic/sterotypical, 3 AM wet-pavements-in-the-Dark-City noirish stuff, try John Barry's "Body Heat," which I enthusiastically recommend. Barry practically *owns* that silky/sexy slow sax genre.
Nice imaginative collection.......2006-08-04
A collection of musical cues from various film noir scores, but imaginatively assembled to constitute a new score for a nonexistent movie. Cleverly done, choosing from excellent sources, and not going for the easy or the obvious. It's exciting to hear someone making a connection between Bernard Herrmann and Angelo Badalamenti.

Sentimental, haunting score in the vein of Herrmann, and distinctly Donaggio.......2006-08-25
I've always loved Pino Donaggio's music since I heard the score for his maiden "Dont' Look Now" (1973), which remains my favorite tour of melancholic mind-states (and an incredible film about guilt, memory, projection and quauntuum physics... and strange blind psychics!).
Pino's score for "Carrie" followed in '76 and is as responsible for the success of that odd, wild film as any other element.
Donaggio captured with great lyricism the repressed feelings of romantic longing - and pure rage - that Carrie White kept hidden from her nutcase, born-again Mother, played so brilliantly by Piper Laurie. His Italianate-Venetian sensibility was wedded wonderfully to DePalma's operatic excesses, in full swing in the Seventies' craziest, well-scripted, well-acted USA horror film (before teenagers would come to ruin the genre in the 80s and 90s and on with sadistic snuff stuff like the Saw and the Chainsaw franchises).
To answer the quibbles below, Ryko and Varese include a repeat of Track One because, contrary to a prior reviewer, the exact same repetition recurs in the film. "Sue's Dream" is NOT the same as Track 1. Track 1 "Theme for Carrie" is repeated exactly in the End Credits when the screen goes black. So, there. The producers were just trying to replicate the experience of the movie and its original soundtrack. DePalma did exactly the same thing with Donaggio's Main Theme for DRESSED TO KILL in the film (another fine score of Herrmannic excesses).
This score has aged well, and it's nice to hear melody in a film score, as the current trend is ambience, and atonal slush and effects.
Katie Irving's "I Never Dreamed..." with music by Donaggio, is one of the loveliest Country ballads in memory. Perhaps a bit breathy, but sweet, and gorgeously orchestrated.
My only gripe: the new varese picture cover is awful. The Original United Artists LP cover was fine. This is lurid and cheapens the film and the score.
"It has nothin' to do with Satan's power, Momma! Somtimes if I concentrate hard enough I can MOVE things!!!" Go, girl!
Brilliant Soundtrack.......2006-05-22
I've looked off and on since the late 70s for the soundtrack to this movie. I never actually knew one existed -- I just could never believe that one DIDN'T! Although the movie "Carrie" is an excellent production, it NEVER would have had the impact without the BRILLIANT musical score of this soundtrack. It's ironic that after many years of looking for this this soundtrack on vinyl, I stumbled across it by accident on cd. If you're a fan of the movie "Carrie", you will LOVE this cd!
Invaluable Contribution to a Horror Classic.......2006-04-09
When Brian De Palma first saw Nic Roeg's psychological thriller DON'T LOOK NOW, the most important question he would ever ask was: who composed the score? That was one Pino Donaggio, and what Morricone was to Argento and Herrmann was to Hitchcock, Donaggio became to De Palma for CARRIE.
How important was the soundtrack? Imagine, if you will, JAWS without John Williams' terrifying, pounding theme. EXACTLY. Donaggio has been quoted as saying that he composed the CARRIE score as if he were writing for a grand opera, (in this case a "Grand Guignol opera.") The wistful, sad and eerie sense of melodrama with which this native Italian composer imbued the music is just one of the important components that made this high school horror drama so memorable (besides the unforgettable performances.)
Each track brings back a specific memory for anyone who remembers the film well (and I do). It was only fitting that Donaggio would work on all of De Palma's films afterwards (BLOW OUT, DRESSED TO KILL and BODY DOUBLE), and that he would work with directors as lauded as David Schmoeller (TOURIST TRAP) and Joe Dante (THE HOWLING).
One can only hope that this talented craftsman will still be plying his trade well into the millennium.
Carrie cd is released with a repeated track of track 1.......2005-07-22
I own the original lp import from Australia and just got the new cd from Varese Sarabande. I think this cd is a great cd and a enjoyment for the Pino Donaggio fans like me. I agree with other people's good reviews but I'm a little bit angered and confused by why Varese repeated track 1 twice? You see in the track Sue's Dream contains the end title right after the wild music cue where the hand comes out of the ground. A repeated track of track 1 for track 13 is not necessary and stupid. Rykodisc did this when they first released the cd and don't know why they repeated the first track?
Varese should have been more smarter releasing the cd the way it was supposed to be released and not looking on how Rykodisc released it. Carrie from Varese Sarabande is supposed to be a rerelease of the original 12 track lp. I for one will skip track 13 and erase it on the minidisc after I digially transfer it and will have to program the first 12 if I copy the cd in my dual well Philips Cd Recorder. I had a few people on Soundtrack Collector who think they know it all and think that track 13 is different and is played at the end but they are just lame cause I'm smarter than them.
The Greatest Musical Score Ever!.......2005-05-22
I know this is just an opinion, but I firmly believe that "Carrie" has the greatest musical score of all time. Yes, all time. I know there are lots of other movies with supposedly great music, but I don't think any movie has had as effective a score as "Carrie." "Carrie" is my number one favorite movie, a brilliant commentary on high school and society and religion and revenge, with brilliant direction from Brian De Palma and Acadamy Award worthy acting from all involved. It's really similiar to an opera in many ways, because in between the moment where they announce the King and Queen of the prom and the moment where Carrie hugs her mother, there is no dialogue, really, just music and inaudible noise as everyone panics (unless you count Carrie's mother's voice saying "They're All Gonna Laugh At You!"), and the music perfectly describes the emotion of Carrie. It is so effective. There are countless scenes in the movie where the music takes it to a whole new level, adding more emotion and feeling. The slow motion walk up to the stage is the most effective piece in the whole film, as the music alternates between peaceful and happy to evil and frightening and back again, then building slowly as Sue sees what's going on. Pino Donnagio is a genius, and the music is unfogettable. This album also includes some wonderful songs from the film, including "I Never Dreamed Someone Like You Could Love Someone Like Me," from Katie, Amy Irving's sister. It's an incredibly romantic song. This album is fantastic, and I urge you to pick it up and become engrossed in the operatic beauty of Pino Donnagio's musical score for the greatest movie of all time, "Carrie."
