The music is barely audible over the noise of the movie. Terrible waste of TD's efforts.billythefish wrote:I've not seen the film - it's never struck me as one worth looking out for... although I'm always interested to see how the music fits the images.
The LP is a very mixed affair IMHO - with some stand-out moments, but many poor ones. I would love for TD to have mixed this up into a proper release in the same way the did with Sorcerer, Thief, Flashpoint etc.
BTW - the worst TD-scored film I've seen is 'Strange Behaviour'. It's very hard for me to imagine how anything could be worse than this one!

I tried to warn everyone. That movie just blew chunks. Terrible, disgusting film. Did TD even read the script before they wasted a note on it???Pertou wrote:Tried watching the film today. Fell asleep after 20 minutes. Listened to the soundtrack cd when I woke up*. Both times I got very annoyed by the rock band tracks. Especially "something to remember me by" which seems to be running constantly for first 7-10 minutes
I couldn't trace any "plot" whatsoever without subtitles. What I saw is the worst movie TD scored. Miracle Mile, with that provoking main character and his ugly girlfriend, looks like Rubycon in comparision.
I still have to go through the remaining 70 minutes, so I could post anything that would Rattymouse shout "Brutal!" (only RM saying "Brutal!" would be worth watching the movie)
The TD and Sylvester Levay are just acceptable, because the work nicely together, I can't really tell the difference
* You get a more pleasant sleep watching Dante's Inferno. Can't remember me watching it from beginning to end
No, there was no mention on the original pay cheque of the lack of quality in that film .rattymouse wrote:I tried to warn everyone. That movie just blew chunks. Terrible, disgusting film. Did TD even read the script before they wasted a note on it???
or the subsequent royalty cheques ! after looking through the selection of other films TD have scored on the youtube link posted in the Red Heat thread ..then this film isnt the worst by a long way.Seeker_UK wrote:No, there was no mention on the original pay cheque of the lack of quality in that film .rattymouse wrote:I tried to warn everyone.

Must be the money, the movie was very very very bad. And the soundtrack? Hmm, wasn't too good either and not complete TD.rattymouse wrote:One wonders if TD had any criteria at all in accepting soundtrack work other than the promise of a nice payout. This movie just blew chunks big time. If TD spent one hour working on music for this movie it was one hour too many. A total waste of their time.epsilon75 wrote:I think its worth snapping up for its rarity,but as Chris said the actual songs are all to brief. I honestly dont think TD had a say in some of these soundtrack releases,they could have been formed but betterChris Monk wrote:Never had the 'pleasure' of watching this film but the soundtrack has one or two nice, but very brief, moments. It's not something I would recommend anybody getting, it's certainly not a 'must have'. Once again it's one of those soundtracks that could have done with some development work before being released.
