The Music


Every time she got raped, that music would come on that would crack me up and I wouldn't be affected by the scene at all. That "DAA DAA DAA DAA DAA" music LMAO!
How do you take this movie seriously when the music his absolutely hilarious!

I agree. Whatever I was supposed to feel during the rape scenes - disgust, anger, horror - was instead replaced by humour and therefore riotous laughter. This I think is an excellent example of a film's score ruining the mood of a scene. Plus, I couldn't help but think of the director telling Barbara Hershey "to squirm and wiggle, you know, like an invisible man is rapin' ya!"

Props to Hershey for what must have been difficult, or conversely, amusing. It made me laugh, but it's not my fault. Bad musicians, they're to blame.

I saw this movie for the first time in the early hours of this morning.

During the first attack I thought the music was pretty funny.

But as the film wore on, and the music came and went with every attack, that same killer beat... it got freaky.

There's something... dedicated... about the music. Like it won't stop.

"Bath Attack" Yep...and it was scary in Inglorious Basterds too...I was like WTF is going on...is The Entity playing on my computer somehow?

It scared me.... just because it was very jarring.

I think that had to be one of the most creative uses of music in a Tarantino film. I just wish he'd included Bath Attack on the IB soundtrack release.

I have a message for Germany...

The "daa daa daa daa" music was supposed to symbolize the ghost's thrusts inside her...

I agree that the music during the attacks becomes annoying and is used too often, it's the worst thing about the film. All the other music though is great, the quieter stuff really adds to the creepy atmosphere and I also like the main theme.
