Austrian composer Harald Kloser was hired to create the film’s score. After completing the score for The Day After Tomorrow, Kloser was chosen by Anderson as he is a fan of the franchises. It was recorded in London, and was primarily orchestral as Anderson commented, “this is a terrifying movie and it needs a terrifying, classic movie score to go with it; at the same time it’s got huge action so it needs that kind of proper orchestral support.”
The “Alien vs. Predator Main Theme a particularly striking and serves as a continuous creative source for the composer to dip his baton in.” Kloser throws in some interesting percussion cues (“Antarctica” and “Down the Tunnel”), but more as a sound effect than a consistent motif.”. Originally released on itunes some years ago, the score never managed to reach an expanded or a complete release in any format. However now finally is the complete score as intended, Kloser`s score in its entirety is a far superior listening experience, combining orchestral and electronic instruments to great effect.
