Reception
The score received mixed critical reviews. In writing for The Wire, Clive Bell felt that while the music was at times effectively terrifying, it too often felt recycled and lacking in originality.[5] Marc Masters of Pitchfork Media gave the album 6.2 out of 10, describing the score as typical and concluding that it "is too conventionally filmic to provide a full experience by itself. It feels more in service of someone else's images than capable of inspiring them on its own."[1]
