Brett Anderson recommended Hounds of Love Soundtrack by Kate Bush in Music (curated)

Album Favorite

"I first encountered Kate Bush through 'Wuthering Heights'. I remember my sister rushed out and bought that single in 1978 so I was very aware of her. The Sex Pistols and Kate Bush were my formative music, not The Smiths and David Bowie, that came later. For me Hounds Of Love is the biggest influence on [Suede's] Dog Man Star. I love the way it's a record of two halves, and the second half is a concept record about fear of drowning. It's an amazing record to listen to really late at night, unsettling and really jarring. I always wanted to make a record that was a concept album but not in an ELP sense. I wanted to make one that had a musical coherence, and wasn't just ten songs stuck together but had this sense of journey, that took the listener to a new world. And that's the impact Hounds Of Love had on Dog Man Star."

The fact that Elton John is the best part with a cast like that! (1 more)
The dog dies 😢
Disappointing, but not terrible

To be fair, the first film left a LOT to live up to if a sequel was ever going to match it. Sadly, even with that in mind, it did not live up to expectations.
Firstly, they kill the dog, which is unforgivable!
The way they brought Harry back was very well done, I was worried that it would be too contrived, but it was clever.
Unfortunately they killed of two of the potentially most interesting characters (and two of my favourites) from the first film, Merlin & Lancelot, which was very disappointing. Would have loved to see Lancelot go toe to toe with the American team.
And Elton John, much as I like him, if he's the best part of a film with actors of the calibre of the other cast members, something has gone very wrong.
