Carlo Maria Cordio’s soundtrack for Absurd (1981), also known as Rosso Sangue, is widely regarded by critics as a superior work that far outshines the "video nasty" film it accompanies. Reviewers frequently describe the score as a "mesmerizing late-night groove" that successfully elevates Joe D'Amato's splatter film into "schlocky gold". Critics often compare Cordio’s work on Absurd to the legendary Italian prog-rock band Goblin. It is noted for its "Goblin-ese" feel, blending haunting piano themes with strange '80s synth sounds.
