The Dark Tower End Song

SpoilerPalaver

I put a lot of thought into this. I saw the other guys post about a series soundtrack. I’ve been meaning to make this post for a while now. The perfect end song for the series is Head Over Heels covered by Starset. Let me map it out please give it a listen and imagine the scene.

00:00 - Song starts a Roland is approaching the door at the top of the stairs

00:25 - lyrics start as Roland sees to door. The camera switches to Roland’s face (it looks like a mixture of insanity excitement fear and joy) and the door as if they’re having a conversation based off the lyrics

1:13 - Roland is close to the door now and everything goes slow motion. Camera shots of his face sweating eyes wide open hand moving greedily to the door knob.

1:40 - his hand clasps the knob and turns the door swings open light pouring in and he is pulled through the door

2:00 - light is extremely bright then dims out a bit to see Roland sitting by his withered fire

2:18 - he has slowly stood up to look in the distance towards to man in black. It pans from the bottom up showing the horn of eld on the ground and his gun timed with “it’s hard to be a man when there’s a gun in your hand” in the song

2:30 - I like the idea of this scene being the man in black smirking like he knows something trudging along with Roland barely visible way off in the distance. Or it could be Roland walking towards the man in black.

2:55 - the camera stars rising into the sky maybe spinning a little bit

3:01 - on queue with the song the camera flies through the sky and basically follows Roland’s journey that he took at high speed from the desert through the door 19 times until the song ends. It could end on Roland at the 20th go around or right in front of the door.
