One film that specifically followed me through all of 2012 was Adam Rehmeier’s haunting The Bunny Game. I went back to the film on several occasions, talked to Rehmeier, re-watched it when it hit BluRay and can't recommend it enough. If you missed me rant on about The Bunny Game then check here, and here. I also mentioned in the first piece, the way the soundtrack plays part in the constant grinding tension that is The Bunny Game:
Up to the moment when Bunny enters Hog’s rig, the music,
with the exception of one early Death Metal track, shifts from the mellow
atmospherically ambient style of score to dronish growl. A dronevilish growl
that will seep through most of the coming events that when the music stops and
the soundtrack only consists of diegetic sound it amplifies the moment on
screen and helps set the audience in the realism of the moment. When music is
used in The Bunny Game, it helps build the tension, and I know it’s going to
snap at any given moment.
It’s time to capitalize on the audio assault of The Bunny
Game all over again, as the soundtrack is finally being made available.
Rising Beast Recordings is proud to present the official
soundtrack release of THE BUNNY GAME. This all-new auditory experience was
arranged, edited and sequenced by director Adam Rehmeier just for this release.
60 minutes of music from the film, expanded and seamlessly blended for a sonic
journey that is cinematic in scope. Score by Adam Rehmeier. Includes songs by
HARASSOR and additional score by James Brown III.
Limited edition of 200 copies. Pro-duplicated cassettes with
pro-printed folding j-card inserts.
The main reason I want to plug this soundtrack is partially
due to the fact that it’s a great film and a great soundtrack. But mainly for
the simple reason that it’s going to be a rarity, and it’s being released on
old-school cassette. I still have a cassette deck in my car, and I guess this
will be required listening when drive out to my house in the woods.
Info on how to grab this highly rare item soon to be released by Rising Beast for an insanely
low cost can be found in the links below.
