Customer Reviews:
All hail Shawn and Ed.......2007-01-19
Great soundtrack riddled with soundbites that make it worth it
Shaun of the Dub - A remix of audio from a great movie.......2007-01-19
Shaun of the Dead - OST is genuinely that; original. The disk is comprised of all the songs heard in the movie, some of which are remixed with dialogue from the movie. Very similar to Taretino's soundtrack, but on steroids. Edgar Wright must be as big of a fan of music as he is George Romero, because the 4am DJ session from the movie is played out through the entire album.
While some songs are untouched, like both Queen songs and The Specials, most of the other tracks are versions of songs in the movie mixed with dialogue. Some songs are even created using the dialogue as lyrics, Like Zombi / Kernkraft 400. Most of the mixing entails an intro or end to a song. There are even some original score tracks at the end.
I think the real treat of the soundtrack though is the bits of dialogue interspersed throughout. For a real fan of the movie, like myself, getting to hear familiar lines with songs that were in the background that can be heard in their entirety now. I think that this is one of the best soundtracks of recent years in that it accommodates pretty much every element of the films audio, from dialogue to songs to score. This ones got them all. Let's put it this way; I bought it as an import to the US, and it was worth every penny.
shaun of the dead.......2005-08-20
i think shaun of the dead was great so when i heard the soundtrack i was even happier . It has highlights from the movie and it is really fab i would relly recomend it and I would definetly give 20/20.
Almost as fun as the movie.......2005-08-08
This is a great, GREAT soundtrack. The film's score is brilliantly composed and the song selection is phenomenal. This album has tempted me to buy some sort of Queen "best of" album, because the two Queen songs that are included here are some of the greatest, least overplayed Queen songs there are (Bohemian Rhapsody? We Will Rock You? PLAYED OUT) Also, it's nice to hear some old (OLD) school hip hop from Grandmaster Flash, it's astounding that this is what hip hop used to be, compared to the crap they're slopping out today. Finally, the album contains the only good song the Smiths ever recorded, "Panic". The library tracks (or the remixes thereof) from Dawn of the Dead round out this soundtrack perfectly. My only gripe was the overuse of samples from the movie, some within the songs themselves. These would be better left either as their own seperate tracks, or off the album entirely. We've seen the movie, let the music speak for itself.
Overall, worth the price (though it is an import) and worth several (hundred? thousand?) listens.
