Listen to a Pair of ‘Spiral’ Tracks by Charlie Clouser from the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack [Exclusive]
From an original Nine Inch Nails member who since turned composer.
While Spiral: From the Book of Saw opens in theaters today, Lakeshore Records is set to release the Spiral—Original Motion Picture Soundtrack digitally on May 21 with music by Charlie Clouser (SAW series, Resident Evil: Extinction), a previous member of Nine Inch Nails who has also worked with Prong and White Zombie.
“The tension runs high in Clouser’s score with intense electronic percussion and modified drum machines mixing with his trademark bowed metal instruments as well as the addition of a new Chas Smith instrument creation, the ‘Tio’, that all serve to distinguish this score from his past work,” explains the press release about the OST, which can be pre-saved by clicking here.
“Since a lot of the action in Spiral takes place in the outside world instead of in some dank dungeon somewhere, I wanted the score to have a brighter, more percussive feel than in some of the previous films,” explains Clouser of the film’s unique score. “There’s less of the murky, underwater gloom and more tension-building rhythms, a bit more high-energy feel to many of the scenes. Of course, the familiar murky feel is still there when things get dark, but it’s not the dominant voice in the score any more.
“I used some modified and ‘circuit-bent’ drum machines and other weird electronic percussion to get a more urgent and propulsive feel, and there are moments in the score when we bring in some influences from modern trap beats and other pop music influences. So that’s a bit of a shift in tone from many of the previous films as well.”
Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive taste of two of the tracks, “Boz” and “Waxed”, the former of which Clouser tells us “features lots of girthy low brass chords, and accompanies a scene in which we learn the horrible truth about one of our main characters.”
Adds Clouser about the track “Waxed”:
“This track is the lead-in to one of the more grisly deaths in Spiral, and is a bit of high-energy action as one of our main characters scrambles to escape the inevitable trap, and fails.”

Director Sébastien Vaniček has been set to helm the next Evil Dead movie, but up first from the filmmaker is the creepy crawly spider horror movie Infested. An exclusive new clip gives a discomfiting closer look at the spider terror, and it’ll make you intensely afraid of all bathroom drains and fixtures.
Infested will induce a new wave of arachnophobia this week; the spider horror film arrives on Shudder on April 26, 2024.
If you’re brave enough to face your fears, watch the new clip below to get a feel for the unrelenting wave of spiders that the characters (and the audience) will face in the film.
In the film, “An underprivileged suburb has been thrown into chaos following an invasion of venomous spiders. Ordered to be placed in quarantine, the project sees inhabitants living on lockdown alongside terrifying spiders that are becoming bigger and bigger.
“The story revolves around Kaleb, who’s about to turn 30 and has never been lonelier. He’s fighting with his sister over a matter of inheritance and has cut ties with his best friend.
“Passionate about exotic animals, he comes home one day with a venomous spider and accidentally lets it slip away.”
Théo Christine (“Suprêmes”), Finnegan Oldfield (“Final Cut”), Jérôme Niel (“Smoking Causes Coughing”), Sofia Lesaffre (“Les Misérables”) and Lisa Nyarko star.
Florent Bernard co-wrote the script.
In his review out of Fantastic Fest last year, Bloody Disgusting’s Trace Thurman raved that Infested (aka Vermines) is “one of the best spider attack movies in years,” noting in his 4-star review that the creature feature uses practical spiders – REAL SPIDERS – as much as possible. Thurman also wrote that the spider horror movie is “full of moments that will get under your skin (I kicked my legs up more than a few times in my screening).”
The spiders will be everywhere in Infested, are you ready?
