Steve Moore ‘Cub’ Soundtrack Premiere (Exclusive)
Jonas Govaert’s Cub came out earlier this year and was, in general, very well received by the horror community. Our own Chris Coffel liked it well enough while Jay Hawkinson wrote that the film, “…gets a lot of things right having plenty fun along the way.”
“[Cub] follows 12-year-old outcast Sam who, along with his troop of cub scouts and their teenage supervisors, camp in woods rumored to house a mysterious and deadly werewolf. Inquisitive Sam, certain the woods are inhibited by something evil, soon stumbles upon a feral young boy and, eventually, his evil psychopathic mentor. But convincing the others of the danger falls on deaf ears, and soon ingenious traps begin to take their violent toll on the group.”
To celebrate the upcoming original motion picture soundtrack release, which was composed by Steve Moore of Zombi fame, we’ve got an exclusive stream of the full soundtrack, which is full of brooding and rumbling synths, resulting in something deeply unsettling yet hypnotic. Head below to stream it.
Moore explains how he approached composing Cub, saying:
I started work on this score just two weeks after finishing the score for The Guest. My brain was a little fried, which I think helped add do the dark and emotional feel. The overall tone palette is Hammond M111 and old string synthesizers, with all percussion coming from vintage mono synths.
You can order a physical copy of the soundtrack via Relapse or digitally via Bandcamp.

A hospital stay grows more nerve-frazzling when memory loss distorts reality in our exclusive clip from This Tempting Madness, inspired by a true story.
The mind-bending psychological thriller will be released in select theaters and on demand on June 12 via Vertical.
Simone Ashley (“Bridgerton”) stars as Mia, who awakens from a coma, grievously injured, her memory fractured. As she puts the pieces of her past together, she starts to question her own actions and her perception of reality.
In This Tempting Madness, “Mia awakens from a coma grievously injured, her memory fractured. As she puts the pieces of her past together, she starts to question her own actions, and her perception of reality.”
Jennifer E. Montgomery makes her feature directorial debut from a script she co-wrote with director of photography Andrew Davis, inspired by Montgomery’s first-hand experience with tragedy involving her best friend.
“Months before the incident, there were signals that her world was unraveling,” says Montgomery. “I could feel the pressure building, though I didn’t know what form it would take. I never could have known what violence would come, and I certainly never imagined making a film about it.”
Austin Stowell (“NCIS: Origins”), Suraj Sharma (Happy Death Day 2U), Mojean Aria (Reminiscence), Amol Shah (“For All Mankind”), and Zenobia Shroff (“Ms. Marvel”) round out the cast.
Smoke Jumper Films and Mango Monster Productions produce in association with Catchlight Studios (Heretic, The Blackening).
This Tempting Madness is rated R for “language, violence/bloody images, and brief sexuality.”
