The Hateful Eight: Here’s what’s on Quentin Tarantino’s next soundtrack

A key Spaghetti Western composer has written the score

From the sinister use of ‘Stuck in the Middle with You’ in Reservoir Dogs to his spectacular find that was the 5.6.7.8’s in Kill Bill, music has always been crucial to Tarantino movies.

It’s quite exciting then, that we now have the tracklisting for the soundtrack to his next film, The Hateful Eight, providing some hints as to its tone.

The score by Ennio Morricone (The Good, The Bad and the Ugly) takes up the bulk of the Decca Records release, but there are also some conventional modern songs thrown in, including The White Stripes’ ‘Apple Blossom’ and Roy Orbison’s ‘There Won’t Be Many Coming Home’.

Snippets of dialogue also feature, from the film’s ensemble cast which consists of Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Walton Goggins, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Bruce Dern, Demian Bichir and Channing Tatum.

Set in wintry Wyoming as a storm overtakes a stagecoach on a mountainside stopover, The Hateful Eight will open in cinemas on 25 December, 2015.
