Synopsis

After the untimely death of 16-year-old Martin's father on the operating table, little by little, a deep and empathetic bond begins to form between him and the respected cardiothoracic surgeon, Dr Steven Murphy. At first, expensive gifts and then an invitation for dinner will soon earn the orphaned teenager the approval of Dr Steven's perfect family, even though right from the start, a vague, yet unnerving feeling overshadows Martin's honest intent. And then, unexpectedly, the idyllic family is smote by a fierce and pitiless punishment, while at the same time, everything will start falling apart as the innocents have to suffer. In the end, as the sins of one burden the entire family, only an unimaginable and unendurable decision that demands a pure sacrifice can purge the soul. But to find catharsis, one must first admit the sin.

Michael Robinson

5/10

Overall, the soundtrack of The Killing of a Sacred Deer is a masterful accompaniment to a dark and thought-provoking film, leaving a lasting impact on the listener.

Paul Jackson

2/10

Additionally, I felt that the soundtrack lacked emotional depth and failed to connect with the characters' struggles and emotions. Instead of complementing the intense and dramatic moments in the movie, the music often felt out of place and disconnected from the narrative, leaving me feeling detached from the story.

Ashley Campbell

5/10

The haunting and unsettling melodies in The Killing of a Sacred Deer perfectly capture the eerie atmosphere of the film.

Lisa Anderson

6/10

The music in The Killing of a Sacred Deer is a character in itself, adding depth and dimension to the story being told.

Michelle Carter

6/10

The use of repetitive motifs in the score reinforces the cyclical nature of the characters' actions and the inevitability of their fates.

John Green

6/10

The use of dissonant chords and sparse instrumentation adds to the sense of dread and unease throughout the soundtrack.

Sarah Green

4/10

I found the soundtrack of The Killing of a Sacred Deer to be quite unsettling and jarring, which made it difficult for me to fully immerse myself in the story. The dissonant and discordant tones used in the music felt more distracting than enhancing to the overall atmosphere of the film.

Ashley Phillips

5/10

The minimalist approach to the score allows for moments of silence to be just as impactful as the music itself.

Emily Carter

6/10

The blending of classical and electronic elements in the soundtrack creates a unique and otherworldly soundscape that stays with you long after the film ends.

David Evans

6/10

The score's ability to evoke a wide range of emotions, from fear to sorrow to resignation, showcases the composer's skill in capturing the complexities of the narrative.
