5.0 out of 5 stars A soundtrack worthy of purchase, December 21, 2008

While watching this great movie, I kept thinking this is a movie whose excellence has been enhanced by the soundtrack. After watching it, I looked up the soundtrack on amazon to see if it was available.

Just take a look at the lineup of songs gathered for this film. That is enough by itself to buy it. Then add the creative genius of Mark Mothersbaugh. Mothersbaugh is the guy who used to be in the musical group Devo but who also did a likewise excellent soundtrack for Wes Anderson's film, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Seeing his name in the list of musical artists just confirmed in my mind that buying it was the thing to do. I've had the CD for about a month now and it is currently my most listened-to selection.

It is easy-listening with flavorful pizazz, like a well-cooked meal. The cook knows just what spices to add and how much.

4.0 out of 5 stars Darkly Comedic Sound, August 8, 2000

This review is from: The Last Supper: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Audio CD)

Befitting the tight little dark comedy The Last Supper is its wonderful soundtrack. Mothersbaugh gives a sometimes eerie, sometimes amusing score that perfectly suits the tone of the film in its simplicity.

The non-orignal music was also chosen well. Tracks by KC & the Sunshine Band and Shonen Knife are an ironic contrast to the dark undertones of the film and give a needed rest from the drama.
