Original soundtrack from second installment of battling creatures, drawn from their own franchises at 20th Century Fox, this time starring Steven Pasquale, Reiko Aylesworth, Johnny Lewis. Brian Tyler takes cue from styles established in earlier chapters (Jerry Goldsmith, James Horner, Elliot Goldenthal), then strips melodic shape down to raw edges only. Results are mean, aggressive action set pieces with little respite. Melody takes decided back seat to musical chaos! Crisp playing, recording a big asset. Brian Tyler conducts Hollywood Studio Symphony.
