Tomorrow sees the wide release of Fede Alvarez’s Evil Dead and I personally am pretty much clawing at my skin to see it. One of the aspects of the film that I’m anxious to experience is composer Roque Baños‘ highly acclaimed score. Everything I’ve heard so far simply makes me think that it will be a terrifying yet brilliant composition. Below you can listen to two tracks from film: “Get Me Out Of Here” and “The Pendant/Evil Tango”.

On April 9th, LaLaLand Records will be releasing the soundtrack as a digital download AND as a deluxe CD edition, the latter of which will feature 25 minutes of additional music not featured in the digital download. The CD version of the standard edition will be available on Amazon and all other major online retailers May 7th.

“In the much anticipated remake of the 1981 cult-hit horror film, five twenty-something friends who become holed up in a remote cabin where they discover a Book Of The Dead. An archaeologist’s tape recording reveals that the ancient text was discovered among the Khandarian ruins of a Sumerian civilization. Playing the taped incantations, the youths unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival.” READ MORE

With the Fede Alvarez-directed Evil Dead remake coming out next Friday, it’d be a crime to not report on composer Roque Baños‘ score for the film, which many are hailing as nothing short of brilliance. On April 9th, LaLaLand Records will be releasing the soundtrack as a digital download AND as a deluxe CD edition, the latter of which will feature 25 minutes of additional music not featured in the digital download.

The Fede Alvarez-directed Evil Dead played like gangbusters as SXSW earning a ton of great reviews (and a few mixed ones, to be fair). But that’s not the only place it’s been playing – the film is currently on a multi-city tour that is garnering a lot of good word of mouth. BD Reader Scorpionsy caught up with the film on one of its’ stops and was kind enough to shoot us this review – a mixed take on the film that prefers the 1981 original.

If I may, I think Scorpionsy is doing himself a little bit of disservice by comparing every nook and cranny of it to the original. While Alvarez’s film is very much of the Evil Dead universe, it’s not the exact same. Nor should it be. It’s very much its’ own experience. As far as stuff like the make-up being different, that’s a change I appreciate. Far better for Alvarez to do his own thing than fall on the sword of those pronounced ocular cavities. Read my review here. I stand by every word. Then again, it may come down to the fact that the original Evil Dead, IMO, left plenty of room for improvement. But it’s Socrpionsy’s favorite movie, so naturally the remake starts out at a disadvantage for him.

Update: Sony has removed the clip from YouTube.

YouTube user DarkIslandFilms, who posts music from television, video games, and films, has uploaded a 10+ minute track that it claims is music from the upcoming Fede Alvarez-directed Evil Dead. If true, the music, which is composed by Roque Baños, is pretty incredible. It’s thrilling, bombastic at points while subtle at others, and the use of choir is brilliantly executed, sounding almost like an army of Deadites is chasing after you. Give it a listen below.

DarkIslandFilms is also saying that an April release for the score is possible.

In the much anticipated remake of Sam Raimi’s 1981 cult-hit horror film, “Five twenty-something friends become holed up in a remote cabin. When they discover a Book of the Dead, they unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival.” READ MORE
