A Nightmare on Elm Street (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is the soundtrack to the 2010 film A Nightmare on Elm Street; a remake of Wes Craven's 1984 film of the same name, as well as the ninth overall installment of the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise. The film's original score is composed by Steve Jablonsky and released through WaterTower Music on April 27, 2010, three days before the film's release.

Development

Steve Jablonsky composed the film's original music who integrated and re-interpreted elements from Charles Bernstein's score for the original film; although he opined on not including the original film's theme.[1] According to the producer, Brad Fuller, the score was reminiscent of the 1980s with the use of synthesizers and instruments from that era.[2] Jablonsky and Y. Suzette Moriarty orchestrated a 60-piece string orchestra from the Hollywood Studio Symphony, conducted by Nick Glennie-Smith, with the film's director Samuel Bayer watched the orchestral sessions.[3] Besides the orchestra, a 15-person children's choir also employed to perform the main theme.[1] Although, 65 minutes of music had been recorded for the film, only around 50 minutes of music had been included in the soundtrack.[4]

Reception

Hugh Hart of Wired wrote "by the sixth or seventh variation on the "Oh my God, it’s Freddy!" theme, the novelty wears off, despite daggerlike orchestrations from composer Steve Jablonsky".[5] A. O. Scott of The New York Times described it as "creepy",[6] and Dennis Harvey of Variety called it as "horrifying".[7]
