Column: Slicing Score: Fire in the Sky

  • October 5, 2012

By Maria Mitchell

Fire in the Sky (1993). Composer: Mark Isham.

Regardless of the widespread incredulous attitude towards alien abduction, I really like this movie. It encapsulates all the uncomfortable reactions a community has when one of their members disappears under circumstances that are unacceptable. This film dramatizes the real-life disappearance of Travis Walton from Snowflake, Arizona in 1975. Where Walton was for the five days he was missing, what caused his disappearance, and why he returned in the manner …

Column: Slicing Score: Mars Attacks! (1996)

  • September 21, 2012

By Maria Mitchell

Marks Attacks! (1996). Composer: Danny Elfman.

1996 was a year that belonged to the aliens in mass media. Television chose to showcase two science fiction shows that were toned with a comedic flair. 3rd Rock from the Sun made audiences laugh on NBC and Space Cases colored Nickelodeon’s airwaves with whimsical corniness. On the big screen, however, audiences were introduced to aliens with less benevolence than Harry Solomon or Rosie Ianni. The aliens of Independence Day blew …

Column: Slicing Score: From Hell (2001)

  • September 6, 2012

By Maria Mitchell

From Hell (2001). Composer: Trevor Jones.

This film is a tough one to figure out as far as deciding whether or not it’s entertaining or dull. It will probably bore seasoned “Ripperologists” because they’ve heard most of the theories about the Ripper’s identity. Out of all the theories there are to choose from, these filmmakers went with the one that makes as much sense as cat litter pancake mix. As wrong as this theory is, it is …

Column: Slicing Score: Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966)

  • August 22, 2012

By Maria Mitchell

Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966). Composers: Robert Smith Jr. and Russ Huddleston.

“That was Manos: The Hands of Fate, on Music through the Night.” – Tom Servo. MST3K.

It has been maligned as the worst movie ever made by film critics and filmgoers alike. It has been ridiculed mercilessly by Elvira and the Satellite of Love crew from Mystery Science Theater 3000. It appears to have been made with the sole intent of …

Column: Slicing Score: Damien: Omen II (1978)

  • July 25, 2012

By Maria Mitchell

Damien: Omen II (1978). Composer: Jerry Goldsmith.

This soundtrack is divided into two different parts. It includes the film versions of the cues and the original recording demos.

Main Titles (Film Version): This track nicely showcases Goldsmith’s use of a synthesizer with a traditional orchestra to give these titles a seamless blend of traditional and modern essence.

“Face of the Antichrist”: The guttural intro spliced with percussion makes this cue strange and uneasy. This type of intro …
