Right at Your Door

Directed by Chris Gorak 2006

The music for The Strangers was created with silence in mind. The silence is the music and the score punctuates the silence: the awkwardness of no sound can be as scary as any score. When the score did play however, it was strange with unfamiliar proportions and mixes: loud distorted guitar noises were softly mixed against extremely loud cello harmonics. These odd orchestrations were coupled with a broadly evolving wall of orchestra, which by the end of the film overwhelmed the acoustic space.
