Bear McCreary’s ANIMAL CRACKERS Soundtrack Available

Animal Crackers scoreThree years after its completion, thanks to the bankruptcy of two studios that bought the film, Tony Bancroft (MULAN) and Scott Christian Sava’s ANIMAL CRACKERS can be seen by all on Netflix starting tomorrow.

The news is particularly pleasing for Bear McCreary fans, as the composer regards his first animated film score as “the most insane score I’ve ever written!” That definitely makes it a must-have!

The full soundtrack is available now, from Sony Classical and Sparks & Shadows, at all digital retailers and streaming services.

See our earlier report on the film’s “rescue from distribution hell” here.

Watch the official music video, which depicts scenes for the film interspersed with scenes from the 2017 recording sessions. Deliciously insane!
