There’s nothing like an atmospheric thriller score to accompany you while driving on a rainy day and the score to ‘The Boy’ is no exception 😉
Nice, I am a big fan of Bear’s soundtracks
Bear McCreary never fails to deliver compelling tunes. Can’t wait to hear this collaboration with Brendan McCreary.

Brilliant score gentlemen! I would be most excited, and honored if I were fortunate enough to win a signed ‘The Boy” soundtrack CD. Thanks
Looking forward to hear what great music Bear McCreary has created now.
Absolutely amazing soundtrack, eerie and astmospheric. A perfect fit to The Boy.
I might add, I’ve attached dollar bill somewhere inside this message as an incentive to send me a signed copy. 😉
Nice to see (and hear!) that Bear is scoring more films. He is already the king of TV music (BSG, AoS, Outlander, Walking Dead) and maybe soon he will conquer the movie music world as well!
Nice! Bear McCreary is my very favorite composer, and this is actually the only CD of his I don’t own yet (I was waiting to see if there was a chance to get an autographed version)

It’s important to follow the rules in this giveaway contest just as it is in babysitting. Otherwise bad things tend to happen… 🙂
Bear McCreary has never written a bad score yet.
The music made the atmosphere of the film completely, as a character unto itself the score took the writing unto a whole new level.

Awesome! Thank you! Shall send email now 🙂
It’s exciting to see him venture into the big movie business. I’m hoping for some bombastic symphonic score like his Human Target in cinemas soon.

It would be nice to win, so i can give an autographed copy to my love…
Very fascinating exceptional music !!!
Bear McCreary hitting the right atmospheric notes once again
Bear creates and produces brilliant film music. He is among the giants of his art and craft!
Bear is having an excellent year with both 10 Cloverfield Lane and The Boy. Finally, he gets some major cinematic love.
I’m in! Sign me up!
I really liked The Boy, and the score was fantastic. Great work all around.
Love that creepy music. Usually, I don’t want to notice the soundtrack, but rather feel it. I did notice the score to The Boy and it put a cool weird smile on my face as I jumped out of my seat. Great work!
