5.0 out of 5 stars The best score to grace a movie., July 20 2004

This review is from: Bram Stokers Dracula (Audio CD)

When I first saw Bram Stoker's Dracula in the theaters, the music didn't initially catch my interest. Of course when this movie came out, I was in elementary school. Nonetheless, everytime I watched the movie once it came out on video and finally DVD, the music began to grow on me. Now at an age where I can truly appreciate good music, I can honestly say that this is without a doubt one of the best motion picture scores to ever grace a movie. There hasn't been one to surpass it since.

Everytime I listen to the music, I keep thinking back to 1992 when the movie came out and I think of the sellout crowd I was a part of when I saw it. This soundtrack invokes all the feelings I had when I saw the movie for the first time. The moody violin and choral arrangements accent what is already a great film. I just don't like that Annie Lennox song at the end of the CD. It sounds incredibly out of place with the rest of the album.

If you see this CD the next time your in your local record store, pick it up and put your money down for it. You won't be disappointed.

Wow-Surreal, intense, passionate, & romantic. A true gem in modern classical music (and music for films for that matter). I've worn this cd out once already from listening to it over and over. I never get sick of it. I also recommend "The Ninth Gate" Soundtrack by the same composer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wojciach Kilar's best music, July 12 2004

Slowchemical (The Lost World) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bram Stokers Dracula (Audio CD)

I have all Kilar's soundtracks but this one is my favorite.
"Dracula - The Begining" is very emotional at first but then it gets very boring and may make a listener think that the composer was very desperate.
"Mina's photo" is a very lovely piece of music. I read Kilar's autobiography book where he said that he never completed.
"Vampire Hunters" is a classical and is the most remembered music from the movie. But again...The melody repeats over and over again but gets louder with each time.
"The Brides" is a very sad and the emotional music in the whole album. In the movie this track appears three times. First it was when Jonathan Harker was dealing with the "angels of hell" Dracula's brides. Another time was in the middle of the movie and the last time it was edited and placed in the credits.
These are my favorite tracks. Other tracks are very good too exept "Love Song for Vampires" which was completely off the topic and in my opinon would look good in Interiew With Vampire soundtrack.
You really should buy Bram Stoker's Dracula soundtrack.

This is beautifully sinister and moving music and perfect for this film. What a perfect match! It's certainly one of my favorite "dark" CD's, when I'm in the mood for... Read more
