Music to fight for you life by., Nov 29 2003
Carpenter's most recent (possibly final?) cinematic offering was dismissed by most as an overly familiar retread of his earlier, better movies. But the score, oh man, that score! Like the one for his penultimate movie, Vampires, it is filled with energy. Gathering together several heavy metal guitarists (as opposed to the blues musicians for Vampires) Carpenter turns them loose and the results are ear splitting fun. Recommended.

Killer!, Sep 13 2002
This soundtrack is killer! It's similar to JC's Big Trouble In Little China score, only more modern. Wasn't too crazy about the heavy metal elements (provided mostly by Steve Vai and Scott Ian), but they're alright. If you're a fan of JC's films/scores like myself, this is an awesome addition to your collection! It's at the top of mine, just below Halloween and Escape From New York. Party on!

Much like the film that it accompanies, it kicks (...), Dec 7 2001
Let me put it to ya like this. If you enjoyed John Carpenter's latest opus, then there's a 9 out of 10 chance that you liked the music. If you liked the music, then this cd is for you. If you like music by the band Anthrax, you will like the music on this cd. If you previously enjoyed anything by Buckethead (Monsters and Robots being a favorite of mine), you will like this cd. If you enjoy ANYTHING by Steve Vai, you will like this cd. And last but not least. If you enjoyed ANY of JOhn Carpenter's previous scores (such as the simple but excellent Vampires) you WILL enjoy this cd. If any of the aforementioned artists or albums appealed to you, stop reading this ridiculous excuse for a customer review and go buy the album.
