Title: "Clive Barker ~ Christopher Young ~ Randy Miller ~ A Winner"
Review: Silva once again has taken the lead with "Hellraiser:Chronicles", three separate scores based on stories by horror writer/director Clive Barker. The first two films "Hellraiser" and "Hellbound" are composed by Christopher Young ~ overwhelming choral work, magnificent arrangement with a large orchestra and choir. Intermittently dark, with scattering of choral tonalities that pulse sat around each counterpoint. Young's score stands very well by itself, would be well received in a concert hall with each cue keeping you on the edge of your seat. The final film in this chronicle is "Hellraiser III:Hell On Earth", as Randy Miller picks up the baton and continues the saga of Pinhead. Miller's score is more dynamic, abundant brass and loaded with percussion ~ takes many liberties that certainly pay off.Total 3-CD-Set ~ Silva America 809 ~ (3/25/2003)
