The soundtrack to Planet Terror (Robert Rodriguez's segment of Grindhouse) was released by Varèse Sarabande on April 3, 2007 from Varèse Sarabande, though the score managed to sell on iTunes a week early. Rodriguez revealed at Comic-Con 2006 that John Carpenter was in talks to compose the score, but decided not to write it, with Rodriguez eventually taking over.[2] Inspiration for his score came from music composed by Carpenter; he said that during the filming of Planet Terror, Carpenter's music was often played on set.[2] The soundtrack features two songs performed by Rose McGowan: a cover of the 1952 song "You Belong to Me" and the original songs "Useless Talent #32" and "Two Against the World". It also includes Nouvelle Vague's cover of Dead Kennedys' 1981 single "Too Drunk to Fuck".
