It was on my list because of the soundtrack, so when I didn’t hear the iconic track at all during the movie I looked it up.
Turns out that there is a re-scored version with a completely different soundtrack, and that was the version we got…

. Featuring an exclusive new soundtrack curated by Zane Lowe.
I will be watching this movie again next weekend, with the proper soundtrack
Listening to the real soundtrack now, I’m so disappointed that my first watch was with… that version
I spent longer than I care to admit waiting for David Bowie to show up in Pan’s Labyrinth, does that count?
That’s a bummer. It’s like watching Legend without the Tangerine Dream soundtrack, much as I adore the compositions of Jerry Goldsmith. Doesn’t help that there’s 4 or so versions, including Ridley Scott’s overly self indulgent director’s cut at nearly 2 hours.
The chvrches song for that is a banger. The rest didn’t grab me though, I’ve also only listened to the soundtrack not the rescore film itself
There’s also the Nicolas Cage classic The Wicker Man. A version exists without his “Not the bees!” scene and let me tell you, that’s a disappointment.
