The film may be relentless, but the soundtrack is pure heart.
From A Soldier’s Descent, the upcoming military slasher known for its unflinching realism, tension, and psychological impact, comes something no one expected — a country music soundtrack that hits deep where the blade can’t reach.

Performed by Honkytonk Hollow, the Official Motion Picture Soundtrack is now available worldwide. But don’t expect horror-themed tracks — expect music that humanizes the story. These songs reflect the emotional core of the film: the people before the chaos, the bonds before the breakdown, and the memories that linger long after the violence. With 14 original tracks, the album is deeply Southern in its roots, blending soulful storytelling and rustic melodies that evoke the spirit and landscapes of the Carolinas.
The film features a high-profile cast, including:
Andrew Pierson (Return of the Living Dead: Trash’s Revenge, Witchcraft XVII: The Initiation, Witchcraft XVIII: The Lanterne of Light)
Jennifer Banko (Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood, Leatherface: Texas Chainsaw Massacre III, Barb Wire, Pacific Palisades, Sunset Beach)
Kaitlyn Trentham (The Jester 2)
J. Gaven Wilde (The Righteous Gemstones, The Black Phone, Halloween Kills)
Laurene Landon (Airplane II: The Sequel, Maniac Cop)
Sandy Johnson (Halloween)
Kristina Lafser (Bad Apples, Witchcraft XVIII: The Lanterne of Light)
Directed by Carissa Pierson, A Soldier’s Descent is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about independent horror projects of recent years — and not just for its scares. In addition to the star-studded cast, over 15 veterans contributed to the production, lending authenticity and emotional weight to the film’s exploration of military trauma and its psychological aftermath. The movie is currently in post-production, with a 2026 release expected.
While the movie drags viewers through fear, suspense, and survival — the soundtrack brings balance. Honkytonk Hollow delivers authentic Southern country rooted in the Carolinas, storytelling, and emotional grit that feels like it belongs to the characters before their descent. Every track evokes the region’s landscapes, history, and cultural heartbeat, grounding the story’s tension in a real sense of place.
