About this Artist
Editorial Reviews
A wild sonic ride to Transylvania -- and more than a few eerie thrills upon arriving there -- is what's in store for the unsuspecting Hugh Jackman fan who tunes in to the soundtrack to the vampire slayer blockbuster Van Helsing. Alan Silvestri's vivid orchestral score seems even more densely action-packed than the thrilling film itself. The driving rhythms gallop forward while a creepy chanting chorus looms overhead like a bad omen. As for the battle scenes, they scarcely need any visuals to convey whether the heroes or villains are winning. Best of all is the inventive orchestration: The string section sounds like buzzing insects one minute, skeletal scratchings on a windowpane the next. With its distorted, spectral waltz theme, the comically grotesque "All Hallow's Eve Ball" offers a brief respite from all the mayhem -- and a disc highlight. Van Helsing is everything a blockbuster soundtrack should be: equal parts adventure, suspense, and just plain fun. Scott D. Paulin, Barnes & Noble
