Quotes

  • Dale Cornelius's original music, inexorably majestic and awesomely tragic, drives the mission
  • A particular achievement goes to the music in Backtrack from Dale Cornelius, providing a thick, robust injection of moody atmosphere to the film that truly sells the darkness. The score grabs the viewer by the ears and forces us to sit up and take notice right from the opening credits. It makes a statement, declaring something bad will happen and you do not want to miss out.
