 The incidental and mood music (composed by W. Michael Lewis and Laurin Rinder, who also scored a handful of episodes of “In Search Of…”) is fairly typical Moog synthesizer suspense and stinger fare, but it works well in the context of the new wave slasher film.Between the rock and roll soundtrack and the electronic music score, "New Year’s Evil"’s music is one of the more memorable elements of the film.
