2012 (1987) / Intrada / 76 mins
A big, muscular action score with a bit of a primal feeling at times, perfect for the film it comes from. The percussion work especially stands out, but the rest of the orchestra gets a workout at times too. Silvestri includes lots of great themes and motifs for both the humans and the predator. However, this new extended album contains a lot of suspense material that, while well done, drags the listening experience down.
