SOUNDTRACK, JED KURZEL - Babadook: Original Film Score By Jed Kurzel (Vinyl) (LP)

RELEASE DATE TBC

Waxwork Records is thrilled to present the soundtrack to the 2014 Australian psychological horror film, THE BABADOOK.
Directed by Jennifer Kent, THE BABADOOK focuses on a troubled widow, Amelia, who is raising her six year old son, Samuel, after the death of her husband in an automobile accident.
After a series of strange events, Amelia and Samuel unexpectedly receive a mysterious pop-up-storybook: Mister Babadook.
The book describes a hideous, tall, pale faced monster in a top hat and coat that tortures his victims after they become aware of his existence.
The narrative and film engulf the viewer in themes of personal loss, grief, despair, and ultimately, recovery.

The soundtrack by Jed Kurzel (Alien: Covenant) is whimsically dark, brooding, and at times, a terrifying listening experience.
Kurzel blends electronic instruments and synthesizers with unorthodox instruments and pulsating, drowning vocal soundscapes.

The film received worldwide critical acclaim.
THE EXORCIST director, William Friedkin, publicly announced,
