AFTER WEDNESDAY HOMAGE TO DE PALMA'S FILM, EVEN MORE OVERT SIGNAL IN BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE
On yesterday's post, Harry noted in the comments that Pino Donaggio's music from Brian De Palma's Carrie is used prominently in the second half of Tim Burton's Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. So I went to see the new movie today, and yes, the film uses an edited version of Donaggio's theme during a big scene. Donaggio's theme is also included on the soundtrack album, which will be released digitally tomorrow. Here's the track listing, as reported by Film Music Reporter:
1. MacArthur Park (Single Version) – Donna Summer (3:55)
2. Tragedy – Bee Gees (5:01)
3. Day-O – Alfie Davis & The Sylvia Young Theatre School Choir (2:52)
