Hood River Entertainment and Glass Eye Pix have released a soundtrack album for the punk slasher The Ranger. The album features the film’s original score composed by Wade Macneil & Andrew Gordon MacPherson (Dark Side of the Ring). Also included are the songs from the movie by Rotten UK, Charlie Rich, Black Lungs, Shayfer James, Ronnie Masters & others. The soundtrack is now available to download on Amazon, where you can also check out audio samples. A vinyl version is available to order here. The Ranger is directed by Jenn Wexler and stars Chloë Levine, Jeremy Holm, Granit Lahu, Jeremy Pope, Bubba Weiler and Amanda Grace Benitez. The movie follows a group of teen punks, on the run from the cops and hiding out in the woods, who face off against the local authority – an unhinged park ranger with an axe to grind. The film premiered at last year’s SXSW Film Festival and was released last month on AMC’s Shudder. Visit the official movie website for more information.
