Steve Jablonsky’s remake score

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

Music and sound

Steve Jablonsky composed the remake’s score. The soundtrack belongs to a film with a more overtly designed visual and sonic finish than the 1974 production, and the home-video supplements include material relevant to its technical construction.

An archive reading: listen to the relationship between mechanical sounds, silence, and score as Erin moves through the family’s spaces. The factory-like environment around the Hewitts gives industrial noise a particular narrative role.

The remake’s music credit, a score release, and compilations promoted alongside the film are separate research categories. This page records the credited composer and points to production and edition resources without presenting an unverified complete song inventory.
