Review by Sykonee Jul 21, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)

A landmark soundtrack of sorts, this was the one that got all the studio execs thinking "Hey, this techno and metal thing seems to go good together, and sells pretty nicely too. Let's do more." The soundtracks for Spawn and perhaps even The Matrix may owe something to Mortal Kombat's success.

While many claim this was the one to get them into 'techno' (c'mon, that Immortals theme is irresistible!), for those who were already in the scene it may not have been much cop. Ironically, this release turned me onto some of the metal acts like Fear Factory and Type O Negative, stuff I'd never care about in those days. I guess it can work both ways, eh?
