Planet Terror (soundtrack)

The soundtrack to Planet Terror (Robert Rodriguez's segment of Grindhouse) was released by Varèse Sarabande on April 3, 2007 from Varèse Sarabande, though the score managed to sell on iTunes a week early. Rodriguez revealed at Comic-Con 2006 that inspiration for his score came from music composed by John Carpenter; he said that during the filming of Planet Terror, Carpenter's music was often played on set.[2] The soundtrack features two songs performed by Rose McGowan: a cover of the 1952 song "You Belong to Me" and the original songs "Useless Talent #32" and "Two Against the World". It also includes Nouvelle Vague's cover of Dead Kennedys' 1981 single "Too Drunk to Fuck".
