With the original motion picture soundtrack to Robert Kurtzman’s horror film The Rage, Midnight Syndicate does what they do best—create the scariest atmosphere possible through music. It’s by far one of the best CDs to listen to when reading or writing a horror story. Even the song titles, alone, create a sense of foreboding—like “In the Forest Deep,” “Feeding Time,” and “Don’t Go in There.”

I personally got a bit of a kick with one song title, “Gor.” Those who’ve read my short story, “Galaxy Store,” at Ray Gun Revival will know why. Of course, the Gor in the movie is nothing at all like the loveable fuzzbucket named Gor in my short story. This Gor is a big, monstrous, zombie-looking creature, and the song most certainly fits the character.

Overall, The Rage soundtrack is great to listen to, very well produced, and makes me want to see the movie. And for a motion picture soundtrack what more could you ask for?
