Essays on the use of music and sound in films from
Godzilla to
Star Wars and beyond.
In recent years, music and sound have been increasingly recognized as an important, if often neglected, aspect of film production and film studies.
Off the Planet comprises a lively, stimulating, and diverse collection of essays on aspects of music, sound, and science fiction cinema.
Following a detailed historical introduction to the development of sound and music in the genre, individual chapters analyze key films, film series, composers, and directors in the postwar era. The first part of the anthology profiles seminal 1950s productions such as
The Day the Earth Stood Still, the first Godzilla film, and
Forbidden Planet. Later chapters analyze the work of composer John Williams, the career of director David Cronenberg, the Mad Max series, James Cameron's Terminators, and other notable SF films such as
Space Is the Place,
Blade Runner,
Mars Attacks!, and
The Matrix.
Off the Planet is an important contribution to the emerging body of work in music and film, with contributors including leading film experts from Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
