Predator: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is the officialsoundtrack album of the 1987 action filmPredator. It was composed byAlan Silvestri. The score is completelyorchestral and was released in 2003.
In 2003,Varèse Sarabande andFox Music released the soundtrack album as part of its limited releaseCD Club collection;[2] the album also includesElliot Goldenthal's arrangement of the20th Century Fox fanfare byAlfred Newman, also used onAlien 3, where the penultimate note of the fanfare freezes and rises in crescendo before abruptly cutting off.
In 2007, Silvestri's themes had been reused in the score ofAliens vs. Predator: Requiem, composed byBrian Tyler.
In 2010, the same yearPredators featured an adaptation of Silvestri's score byJohn Debney,Intrada Records released the album in a 3000-copy limited edition with remastered sound, many cues combined and renamed, and most notably (as with Intrada's release ofBasil Poledouris's score forRoboCop) presenting the original end credits music as recorded (the film versions are differently mixed). This release is notable for having sold out within a day.[3]
In 2018, Silvestri's themes had been reused in the score ofThe Predator, composed byHenry Jackman.
