"This soundtrack is magnificent but dark never the less. The music rises like mist and fills my ears with clouds of color and sound, murky, pulsating and totally electrifying. I haven't listened to it for some time and when this album came on my iPod at random it shocked my senses during my moon lit midnight walk home. The music send a kick through my insides and by the time I got home I felt like the Terminator because this music makes you walk like something out of a movie.



My favorite piece is "Metamorphosis", totally unique and amazing. Hearing it makes me think of a throbbing industrial gestation of some mechanical monster. "Transformation" was also cool but short, I mean werewolf transformation on screen is impressive but when the music matches it all morphs into an unforgettable experience. You hear this music and you know something rotten is about to happen; it's time to run through the darkness. "Red Tape/ Agent Provocateur" is another cool little song, perfect for leather clad a vampire lounge.



In this soundtrack there's no subtle slithering in dark corridors, the music is eerie with an obvious feeling of approaching dread, you know that something big and bad is coming....Not every tracks it loud, some has whispers and monk's chanting, soft piano and violins ( "Eternity and a Day" for example), while others sound like an industrial revolution in the tombs occupied by the vampires. I totally loved it, highly recommended to fans of soundtracks and of fans this movie.

"I loved this soundtrack. It was powerful when it needed to be and more ambient as well. I like this dual texture. I prefer moody yet touching and soft music, perfect for the horror writer. This soundtrack had both, also with the more dramatic action movie style. I would recommend it for those that want it all."

This was worth the wait!

"i couldn't believe that i overlooked Paul Haslinger as the composer for this score - i HAD to get it after finding that out! - when i did buy it i didn't waste time getting it out of the wrapping and playing it in my car ..... A STRONG INTRO i will say that - and trust me ..... this score has Paul Haslinger all over it!i have been a crazed fan over the song Red Tape - i had a copy burned from the net and i couldn't understand why there was a sudden jump on my burned copy - then came the moment when i put in the CD and i let it play ..... THE TRANSITION WAS PERFECT!!! and then it made sense to me why my burned copy jumped - there was a instrumental piece playing before iti gave it 4 stars only because of how quickly the tracks progress - don't get me wrong! - i understand why and i love the music - i just wish that some of the tracks were longer - but this is another masterpiece of Paul Haslinger ever since his previous album titled "Score"!"
