The lyrics "Change my pitch up / Smack my bitch up" are repeated through the whole song. 5.2.1 12-inch vinyl record "Black sleeve".
The Jonny L remix was released through a free CD that came along with an issue of Muzik magazine, while the Slacker remix was never officially released, although it surfaced on a rare and limited set of white labels. Howlett chose the DJ Hype remix to be released on the single. Prior to the release of the single, Liam Howlett was presented with three remixes of the title song, one by Jonny L, one by DJ Hype and one by Slacker. In 2010, the song was voted as the most controversial of all-time in a survey conducted by PRS for Music. The refrain, which consists only of the line "Change my pitch up / Smack my bitch up" was sampled from the song " Give the Drummer Some" by the Ultramagnetic MCs, and it also contains a brief medley of an unidentified female singer vocalising alap. The song caused considerable controversy because of its suggestive title and explicit music video, which depicted scenes of drunken and drug-fuelled sexual excess and violence. In 2013, Mixmag readers voted it the third greatest dance track of all time. It was released in November 1997 as the third and final single from the album The Fat of the Land. " Smack My Bitch Up" is a song by English rave group the Prodigy. It does go to darker places than usual for most horror movies, but even that isn't new or different - at least, not enough to make The Prodigy especially memorable.1997 single by the Prodigy "Smack My Bitch Up"
The movie also relies too heavily on startle scares. But the characters' terrible decisions seem nakedly required for plot purposes, crippling any hope for tension or surprise.
And the performances are solid throughout: Schilling and Mooney are believable as a couple facing something unimaginable, and young Scott is outstanding in the most demanding role. The movie's atmospheres are suitably foreboding and draped in poisonous shadows. But the way it's presented, with some thoughtful matching of images, shows promise. The opening sequence, for instance, could be said to reveal too much, leaving audiences to sit and wait for the evil to emerge in the kid. There's a seamlessness to the use of imagery to set tone and convey information. Director Nicholas McCarthy and cinematographer Bridger Nielson have worked together frequently, and it shows.
But to say those bells and whistles make it original would be to give sole credit to Vanilla Ice for "Under Pressure." That's a real issue when the gag isn't particularly original to begin with: This film fits neatly into the Bad Seed horror subgenre, along with The Omen, The Good Son, Orphan, and many others, albeit with its own slight wrinkles. They proceed to make pretty much every possible bad choice to enable the horror to roll right along. The Prodigy leads viewers to believe that it's going to rise above the genre when the adults figure out pretty early on that something very wrong is happening.
