And I would be remiss if I didn’t mention the great score by Benedikt Brydern and spectacular sound design by Mark Lee Fletcher, which is so important to making the film work.

Dark Remains review


With the help of musician Mark Lee Fletcher and a pristine Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround mix, Cold Blood offers up a true suspense thriller soundtrack. Not really music-based, but a collection of ambient noises and cacophonous cues, the amazing mood created by this aural landscape really amplifies the angst in the film. Even in scenes where actors or situations are scuttling the thrills, the sonic situation is in full panic overdrive...this is definitely one of the better auditory offerings within the outsider realm.

Some great post production was put into the soundtrack for this film! Cold Blood is one of the few films in this budget range to have a Dolby 5.1 audio track. As with John Carpenter's Halloween the music is what makes this film. There's excellent use of the surround channels and it really keeps you on edge while viewing the film.

The score by Mark Lee Fletcher only adds to the effectiveness of the visuals. It is an actual score, as opposed to many horror film's clichéd rock soundtrack and "got-ya" cues. But Fletcher also knows how to play the beats in the horror game, to add to the jumps.

Ghost of the Needle review


This film was definitely depending on its soundtrack as it's ultimately creepy. The bass is there so that you get the spooky feeling and the violins are there to create the atmosphere. Someone had done their homework for this is a brilliant score.

...the 5.1 audio is rife with eerie directional FX.
