The latest release from Intrada is an expanded, two-disc edition to the score for director Philip Kaufman's hit 1978 remake of the sci-fi/horror classic INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS, the only feature film scored by Denny Zeitlin. Disc One features the complete score plus alternates; Disc Two features the original soundtrack sequencing from the film's first release.
The latest releases from Quartet are Ennio Morricone's score for the 1974 French thriller LE SECRET; Riz Ortolani's score for the 1978 "mondo" documentary BRUTES AND SAVAGES; and the score for the 1979 sci-fi/horror film STRIDULUM (aka The Visitor), composed by Franco Micalizzi.

DID THEY MENTION THE MUSIC?
ANCHORAGE - Savannah Wheeler
"Effectively accentuated by a score from Savannah Wheeler that’s laced with fittingly discordant, piercing strings, the soundtrack could have done without extra embellishments, like a folksy rendition of 'America the Beautiful,' to get its point across."
Michael Rechtshaffen, Los Angeles Times
THE BLAZING WORLD - Isom Innis
"For a first-time film on an indie budget, Young and her team offer something truly impressive. Margaret makes her way through all manner of locations, from a retrofitted family mansion (in the Kier-dimension, it’s filled to bursting with flowers both living and dead) to a desert shack that holds a literal key to her future. Backed by Isom Innis’ lustrous and foreboding score, the film’s imagination and production design is an eye-popping showcase for a rising director who clearly knows her aesthetic and how to push it to crazy ends. It’s an imperfect debut, but it holds thrilling promise for what comes next."
Kate Erbland, IndieWire
"However Young, who co-wrote the script with Pierce Brown, fails to build past this basic concept and instead fills the time with shots that seem self-indulgent. There are some moments when the camera lingers on her as she’s crying, fighting, or throwing a tantrum that begin to feel a little silly the longer the shots run. Their purpose is to give her time to shine, but Young’s performance does not rise to the occasion. Kier gives a quirky Goblin King-like performance as Lained, but even that’s not enough to redeem the movie. Cheap CGI effects and strange flashes to monsters and random close-ups weaken the movie even further. Shane F. Kelly’s neon-infused cinematography and Rodney Becker’s production design can’t distract from the on-screen cacophony, which includes the sounds of Young’s music producer and musician husband, Isom Innis."
Monica Castillo, RogerEbert.com
"There are pleasures to be taken from the resourceful staging of this journey by Young, DP Shane F. Kelly and production designer Rodney F. Becker, who all meet on the same wavelength of baroque but homespun kitsch. Isom Innis’ loudly assertive, orchestral-to-electric score, meanwhile, dictates emotion wherever the writing blanks out -- not for nothing do the credits sandwich Innis between direction and screenplay. (Chintzy digital effects, on the other hand, don’t quite pull their weight.)"
Guy Lodge, Variety
THE BOOGEYMAN - Patrick Jonsson
"Familiarity doesn’t always preclude craftsmanship, and when 'The Boogeyman' is in haunted-house mode, Savage and cinematographer Eli Born work the framing, the light sources and the shadows with admirable care and patience, even if the loudly scored jump shocks are perhaps one too many. But as soon as it segues to monster movie — screenwriting team Beck and Woods are the 'A Quiet Place' guys -- a woeful metaphoric derivativeness takes over as swiftly as icky black tendrils spread across the Harpers’ walls and ceiling."
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
GOLDEN VOICES - Asher Goldschmidt
"Berkovich’s Cinemascope lensing intimately frames the protagonists in their drab new environment while the art direction by Sandra Gutman captures all that is seedy, ugly and decaying about it, from their apartment, to the black-market video store and Raya’s no-frills call center. The aptly used score by Asher Goldschmidt alternates with pre-existing melancholy Russian songs."
Alissa Simon, Variety
HOW TO BLOW UP A PIPELINE - Gavin Brivik
"Elsewhere, costume designer Eunice Jera Lee’s work deserves a special shoutout in amplifying these personalities as scrappy and resourceful activists, all with their own distinctiveness and sense of self. Indeed, the portrayal of activists can go off the rails easily with overdone, hippy-ish styling choices. Through Lee’s keen eye we immediately buy these passionate fighters as plausible, flesh-and-blood contemporary people. Rounding off the film’s impressive crafts is Daniel Garber’s zippy and crystal-clear editing, as well as Gavin Brivik’s pulsating electronic score, dangerous and intimate in equal parts."
Tomris Laffly, The Wrap
"An ensemble drama too diluted to meaningfully establish any characters, 'How to Blow Up a Pipeline' relies on tension-building music and chaotic flashbacks to piece together its one-trick heist narrative. Using the book as philosophical inspiration, this Gen Z eco-thriller tries to speak to young audiences plagued by climate anxiety, but it lacks the style or ingenuity to translate. As the action continues, the stakes remain at a steady hum. The tension of the beginning never really ratchets up, no matter how many times the same dramatic music plays. A minor snag is quickly resolved, with Michael muttering, 'Your wire doesn’t f*cking reach, Sean,' two seconds before apparently using it anyway and telling him, 'Good job with the wires.'Stylistically, the movie is all over the map, with no cohesive visual language or point of view. There’s one faux-artsy shot of Xochi bathed in blue light smoking a cigarette, but even this clichéd motif never returns again."
Jude Dry, IndieWire
"Goldhaber has built an incredibly effective tension machine with 'How to Blow Up a Pipeline,' which was shot on warm, grainy 16mm and boasts a galvanizing electronic score by Gavin Brivik. As the group’s plan speeds past the point of no return, the film effectively melds its intimate style into the clichés of a large-scale action movie, as in the moment where two pipeline workers show up at precisely the wrong moment or in a late twist that throws one of the character’s motivations into question. There’s even a bit of Henri-Georges Clouzot’s 'The Wages of Fear -- and, by extension, William Friedkin’s 'Sorcerer' -- in two unbearably anxiety-inducing sequences of the crew carefully moving their D.I.Y. bomb to its blast location."
Mark Hanson, Slant Magazine
"It’s so evenly handled that it’s impossible to praise one star without the others; Barer’s unwavering gaze supplements Scribner’s weight-shifting unease, which allows Froseth and Gage’s comic relief to crack us up and Goodluck’s endearing glower to bring us back down. Meanwhile, Lane and Lawson’s disarmingly raw intimacy supplements Weary’s distance -- it’s finely tuned character work, with everyone rising to the occasion. The filmmaking throws back to the pacing and style of ‘70s thrillers (accordingly scored by Gavin Brivik’s too-cool synth riffs), but its excellent cast radiates as much charm as 'Ocean’s Eleven' and as much danger as 'The Dirty Dozen.'"
Jacob Oller, Paste Magazine
"In 'How to Blow Up a Pipeline,' a diverse young cast, including 'American Honey' star Sasha Lane, Lukas Gage ('Euphoria'), Forrest Goodluck, Jayme Lawson (the mayor in 'The Batman') and 'black-ish''s Marcus Scribner, play a group of ideologically-driven eco-activists -- or, if you’re on the other side of the trenches, ‘eco-terrorists’-- who, inspired by Malm’s book (because meta is better) set off for a Texas oil refinery to turn theory into praxis. Along the way, flashbacks sketch in the backstory of each of the characters, and it’s a testimony to Goldhaber’s skill -- and composer Gavin Brivik’s propulsive score -- that the cut-up chronology doesn’t let the air out of the film’s narrative tyres."
David Hughes, Time Out
"Directed and co-written by Daniel Goldhaber in collaboration with Jordan Sjol and Ariela Barer, 'How to Blow Up a Pipeline' adapts and reimagines a same-titled non-fiction book by Andreas Malm, which argues, among other things, that climate change is a rapidly accelerating threat to human life; that pacifist protests that try to appeal to the moral conscience of giant energy companies and their government proxies are doomed to failure and have done nothing to slow the disaster; and that targeted sabotage that is aimed at property and is careful to avoid hurting people is a justified next step. The film's tone, pacing, and construction evoke classic thrillers from the '70s and '80s, from the dynamic but never showy camerawork and crisp, short, flowing scenes to the retro-synth score (by Gavin Brivik) that burbles beneath even expository moments, to the way the opening plunges audiences right into action, then judiciously flashes back to fill in everyone's backstories and show the different reasons why each of them is drawn to such extreme action."
Matt Zoller Seitz, RogerEbert.com
"'How To Blow Up A Pipeline' starts like a heist movie. Set to rhythmic music, a team of activists in West Texas separately go about their tasks, then gather together. Slowly and deliberately, each character and what they do is revealed. There’s an emphasis on work and preparation. Each character is moving, doing something, or taking care of someone. Obviously, they are getting together to perform the act that’s in the movie’s title. The 'why' is held back for the time being. Propulsive and with a hint of mystery, these early scenes set the film up like a thriller."
Murtada Elfadl, The Onion AV Club
INTRUSION - Alex Heffes
"It’s here that the film’s construction begins to feel half-baked, compared to what came before. In earlier scenes, where the focus is squarely on Meera’s doubts and silent realizations, the camera weaves and tilts as it moves through space or pushes in on her, magnifying her lingering sensations in the process. However, once the film takes on a mystery bent, its focus on physical details is awkward, misplaced, and worst of all, noncommittal. The camera stands mostly still as Meera reacts to addresses, logos, and other bits of information that appear to mean something to her, but few of these things are ever established for the audience, and so their meaning remains vague for unbearably lengthy stretches of time, especially as the plot begins to displace most of the character drama. Pinto is even shot in profile for at least one of these sequences, which really doesn’t help unearth what’s meant to be happening (emotionally or logistically). Were it not for the film’s suitably jagged and propulsive music by Alex Heffes, which hints at how all this information might eventually fall into place, such scenes of discovery would be entirely perfunctory."
Siddhant Adlakhsa, IndieWire
KNOCKING - Martin Dirkov
"In addition to its mind-bending narrative, the visual style of 'Knocking' is equally as striking. Cinematographer Hannes Krantz luxuriates his images in burnt reds, velvety greens, and golden sunset yellows, darkening the movie’s color palette without taking away its vibrancy. Both pale fluorescent lights and sunlight seeping in through tan curtains cast a pall over Molly, as if she can never escape from clouds looming overhead. A number of camera angles and movements feel especially unsettling, not just in an off-axis tilted angle kind of way, but like when the camera pans over Molly’s head in a way that resembles the motion of a brain scan, as if the audience was sharing her out-of-body experience. Or there's the dizzying close-ups of a frantic Molly with what looks like a GoPro, which enhance what feels like a claustrophobic episode, the outside world blurring around Molly, leaving her more dazed and uneasy as ever. Martin Dirkov’s haunting score accompanies Molly’s journey, amplifying its eerie tones as her behavior becomes erratic."
Monica Castillo, RogerEbert.com
"At least Kempff’s visual storytelling is all in order, making for an auspicious formal calling card. Hannes Krantz’s humid, gravy-toned cinematography and Elle Furudahl’s cramped, faintly rotting production design work in close conjunction to keep us in Molly’s anxious headspace, rather than coolly outside of it. (That said, increasing use of a Snorricam-like setup to convey her disorientation, echoing the chaotic final reels of 'Requiem for a Dream,' might be a gimmick too far.) Thomas Jaeger’s sound design, meanwhile, cleverly makes the knocking such a fixed aural motif -- layered through a score and soundscape so rife with other buzzes, screeches, whines and percussive rattles of uncertain origin -- that we’re sometimes uncertain if we’re actually hearing it or not. That’s some nifty cinematic gaslighting right there."
Guy Lodge, Variety
"As you’d hope in a movie called Knocking, the sound design (by Thomas Jæger) is superb, accentuating the story’s chills and emotions without overpowering them. In a hospital intake room, the sound of an unseen interviewer’s typing after each question and answer is bloodcurdling, and the use of silence at key moments builds a portentous feeling of suspended animation. Martin Dirkov’s understated score is slithery and insinuating, but it’s also infused with an aching sadness. This is, at its core, a story of grief."
Sheri Linden, The Hollywood Reporter
MENDING THE LINE - Bill Brown
"The fly-fishing sequences are beautiful, and the Montana scenery is stunning. Bill Brown's score is of the old-fashioned sweeping kind, and its use is heavy-handed, insisting on the scene's emotion as opposed to supporting it. Watching Colter standing in the river, a big smile on his face when he casts out his line correctly, carries its own weight without orchestral underlining. Each character gets a lengthy monologue, where they tell their story and sum up their emotions. The cranky old-coot humor between Studi and Cox is a welcome break, and there could have been more of it. Ike, Colter, and Lucy are complex people struggling with entrenched problems which can't be wished away. They do their best to survive and sometimes fail to rise above. This dynamic saves the film from sentimentality and some of its blunter tendencies towards self-conscious 'inspiration.' Life is hard. You never heal completely. You just find ways to cope."
Sheila O'Malley, RogerEbert.com
NOBODY'S HERO - Xavier Boussiron
"Like most of his films, the technical elements, including gritty, naturalistic cinematography by Hélène Louvart ('The Lost Daughter') and low-key music by Xavier Boussiron (who worked on Guiraudie’s 'The King of Escape'), are strong, underscoring an urban setting that’s at once mundane and constantly tense. The original French title, which is also the title of a song by late pop singer France Gall, translates to: 'Come, I’ll take you there.'"
Jordan Mintzer, The Hollywood Reporter
SHOOTING STARS - Mark Isham
"Robinson's direction, Karsten Gopinath's cinematography, Jo Francis's editing, and Mark Isham's score work harmoniously to put across the text and subtext of each moment, large or small, while also infusing them with additional layers of meaning. Playful drone shots zoom along behind a bicyclist; zip through an open window and follow an actor through a small apartment; and (incredibly) follow the ball through a hoop after a dunk. These moments are a visual corollary for that elating feeling you get when your mind, body and spirit are are so attuned that you feel as if physics can't restrain you. Even spectacular compositions have meaning and purpose. An overhead shot of the Catholic school team and its Black players doing pre-practice stretches on a gym floor emblazoned with huge cartoon leprechauns sums up the heroes' cultural context better than dialogue could."
