Robert Rodriguez - Grindhouse: Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror '2007

Tracks list

       Planet Terror, Robert Rodriguez's half of the 2007 double-feature
exploitation celebration Grindhouse, has a very different soundtrack than
Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof. Like any other QT soundtrack, Death Proof
relies on existing music, cherry-picked from obscure pop, soul, and soundtrack
records, but Rodriguez is a D.I.Y.-er right down to assembling his own scores
(albeit with some assistance from Graeme Revell here). Here, he extends his John
Carpenter tribute right down to the icy, grimy synth scores that fueled films
like Escape from New York (of course, Carpenter also did his own music, just
like Rodriguez). To that basic electronic bed, Rodriguez adds some of his own
flair -- some heavy metal guitars, motifs borrowed from spaghetti Westerns, some
Texas blues, sometimes putting it all together into a mélange that sounds
strikingly like early-'90s industrial-pop -- that gives it a knowing
postmodernist spin, and then he adds a couple of key musical moments from his
film (his star Rose McGowan singing a torchy version of "You Belong to Me,"
Nouvelle Vague's version of the Dead Kennedys' "Too Drunk to ****") to finish it
all off. It all adds up to a clever, entertaining soundtrack, one that may not
be as compulsively listenable as Death Proof (after all, that's all pop songs
and this is primarily score) but one that captures the vibe of its film just as
well as its companion.
