Estasi Dell Anima - David Sardy

One thing I can’t appreciate Zombieland for is its soundtrack - as films go, it’s fairly standard, using all the jarring chords and high-pitched strings that you’d expect it to.

Apart from this beauty of a track at the end.

Don’t let the Italian name put you off - this was just perfect as an accompaniment. It gives the impression, with the scene from the film, of being a last stand - of course it later turns out that they’re all fine, but there’s that uncertainty of will-they-won’t they when it comes to them dying horrifically. The piece itself is a beautiful combination of guitars, Western riffs, soaring symphonic energy and - believe it or not - opera singers.
