  1. Mike says:

    SO glad that Adam Wingard has made a new movie. I really enjoyed You’re Next. Even better he used Love and Rockets, Clan of Xymox, and Sisters of Mercy in the soundtrack! I fear that I may have already missed any local showings of this movie but I am liking this guy more and more. Mike.

  2. Nick says:

    “The Guest” was written by Simon Barett, not Dan Stevens.

  3. Nicklas says:

    What kind of music is it ?, never heard something like it , but i like it 😀

    • TheHelper says:

      I like it too lol, I think it is the Industrial genre. Maybe look it up and see where it takes you.

  4. Dan says:

    I love the soundtrack to this film, but I’m disappointed the one track I really want is not included in the OST.

    It’s the one that plays when they’re sitting in the car before they enter the bar and during the fight in the bar – after the drink gets thrown in his face. Anyone know what it is?

    Btw. if you like this soundtrack, I recommend you check out the genre Nuwave or Synthwave as there’s a whole load of artists producing this kind of 80s themed synth stuff.

    Edit to my above post:

    This is a soundtrack, plus 6 additional songs found in the movie.

    Easily one of the best soundtracks I’ve ever heard. I immediately had to find it, burn it, and put it on my phone. There’s 18 songs all told in the movie.. and the above is the track list. It’s out there of course.
