Over the last decade, music and sound have been increasingly
recognized as an important―if often neglected―aspect of film production
and film studies. Off the Planet comprises a lively, stimulating, and
diverse collection of essays on aspects of music, sound, and Science
Fiction cinema. Following a detailed historical introduction to the
development of sound and music in the genre, individual chapters analyze
key films, film series, composers, and directors in the postwar era.
The first part of the anthology profiles seminal 1950s productions such
as The Day the Earth Stood Still, the first Godzilla film, and Forbidden
Planet. Later chapters analyze the work of composer John Williams, the
career of director David Cronenberg, the Mad Max series, James Cameron's
Terminators, and other notable SF films such as Space Is the Place,
Blade Runner, Mars Attacks!, and The Matrix. Off the Planet is an
important contribution to the emerging body of work in music and film.
Contributors include leading film experts from Australia, Canada, Japan,
New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
