Lots of monstrous bellowing accompanies SUPER 8, a film that sports what’s likely the most eagerly awaited Giacchino soundtrack to hit this month, especially for score fans who share the obvious movie geek love that J.J. Abrams’ put into his scary valentine to all 1970’s / 80’s things Spielberg and Amblin.

It’s a similar balancing act that Giacchino does here for […]Read On »

To be fair, Spielberg indeed is a producer here and SUPER 8 comes sailing […]Read On »
