Reviews
Voted 8th best film
score of 1998
by the international film music
journal FilmScore Monthly.
"Eckart Seeber has been composing
an engrossing
soundtrack for this film, greatly enhancing the
films
impact, skillfully placing cues at critical
points. The
film utilizes Orff-ish choir arrangements and
thus
generates a tension packed atmosphere, just like
Jerry Goldsmiths fabulous award winning
score for
The Omen did back in 1976. Choir
arrangements
of this style take a lot of practice and skill on
the
composers and arrangers end, and the
performers
alike, and I was curiously surprised by the
quality
of this one. Because religion is directly
embedded
in the movies storyline, these choir themes
work
great and give the score a big and ominous,
almost
foreboding character ......"
(-Guido Henkel, DVD Review)
