The Last House Soundtrack Overview
The official score album, The Last House (Soundtrack from the Netflix Film), was released by Netflix Music as a Digital Album Hi-Res release day-and-date with the movie on August 7, 2026, and is available to stream on Spotify and Apple Music. One track from the score had already gone out as a standalone digital single the week before the album’s full release. All 26 tracks are original score cues composed by Yair Elazar Glotman; there is no separate “songs from and inspired by” companion release for this title.
Speaking about the score’s design, Glotman described the music as tracking the family’s emotional state as their home turns into a trap — beginning in a smaller, intimate register centered on warmth and quiet unease, then widening into large-scale orchestral writing built around heavy brass, aggressive percussion, and distorted strings as the survival stakes escalate. Director Louis Leterrier has described the film itself as testing the idea of a home as a safe haven, and the score’s arc — from domestic calm to full orchestral tension — mirrors that shift directly.
Who Composed The Last House Soundtrack?
Yair Elazar Glotman (born 1987 in Tel Aviv, Israel) is a Berlin-based composer, double bassist, and sound artist. He trained as a classical orchestral contrabass player before expanding into electroacoustic composition, and that dual background — acoustic performance combined with analog and digital sound processing — defines his scoring style, including his work on The Last House.
Glotman’s path into film composition began through a close working relationship with the late composer Jóhann Jóhannsson, for whom he contributed additional music to Mandy (2018) and later co-composed the score for Jóhannsson’s directorial feature Last and First Men (2019). He went on to co-compose A24’s False Positive (2021) with cellist Lucy Railton, and he wrote the solo score for Netflix’s thriller Reptile (2023), starring Benicio del Toro. He has also contributed double bass performance and additional arrangement to other composers’ work, including on the Oscar-winning scores for Joker and All Quiet on the Western Front.
Beyond film, Glotman is a solo recording artist signed to Decca Publishing, releasing music under his own name and through his experimental project KETEV, with releases on labels including Deutsche Grammophon and Bedroom Community. The Last House marks his highest-profile solo scoring credit for Netflix to date.

Score Highlights
- “Entering 11817” — The album opener, named after the family’s home address and the film’s original working title, establishing the score’s central four-note motif before the family’s world closes in.
- “Lament” — At 4:13, the longest cue on the album and its emotional centerpiece, built around the sustained, mournful string writing Glotman is known for.
- “Concerto for the Last House” — The only credited collaboration on the album, co-performed with pianist Nitai Hershkovits, and one of the score’s most overtly orchestral, large-scale cues.
- “The Flood” and “Panic in the Attic” — Back-to-back late-album cues that lean into the aggressive percussion and distorted strings Glotman described as marking the film’s survival-stakes peak.
- “The Last House” — The concise title-track cue, arriving near the album’s close as the family’s ordeal reaches its resolution.
- “Leaving 11817” — The closing track, mirroring the opener’s motif as a bookend to the family’s confinement.
The Last House Licensed Songs / Needle Drops
Unlike some Netflix thrillers, The Last House is driven almost entirely by Glotman’s original score, but two licensed needle drops are confirmed as part of the film:
- “Close to Me” — The Cure (1985): Confirmed as featured in the film via SeekerTune’s soundtrack index. An independent viewer account further describes the scene context — the father character playing the song on a turntable during a quieter domestic moment early in the film — though no outlet has published an official timestamp.
- “Tomorrow” (from Annie) — performed by Aileen Quinn & Orphans: Confirmed as featured via SeekerTune. Scene placement has not yet been documented by any source, so it is listed here as a confirmed inclusion with pending scene context.
No dedicated listing for The Last House (2026) currently exists on WhatSong; searches there return only pages for the unrelated 1972 and 2009 The Last House on the Left films. Given the film released within the past week, this is treated as expected indexing lag rather than a confirmed absence of additional needle drops.
