From Waxwork Records: "Here’s what we have in store for 2018 Waxwork Records Subscribers:
Night Of The Living Dead (1968)
After three years in development, Waxwork Records is excited to announce that we are releasing, for the very first time in any format, the definitive and complete Night Of The Living Dead Original Motion Picture Soundtrack. This jam-packed deluxe double LP soundtrack project was enthusiastically supported by director George A. Romero, and we have had the immense pleasure of working directly with the creators of the now historic film, The Museum Of Modern Art, and The Criterion Collection to source all assets of Night Of The Living Dead’s music. Re-stored, re-mastered, and available for the very first time! More details on this massive release are forthcoming.
Dawn Of The Dead (1978)
Years in the making, Waxwork Records is thrilled to bring you the expanded, and complete film score to the 1978 zombie-horror classic, George A. Romero’s Dawn Of The Dead. Scored by the Italian progressive rock group GOBLIN, Waxwork is excited to offer, for the very first time, a deluxe double LP featuring the complete score music of Dawn Of The Dead with all new artwork, re-mastered audio, high quality packaging, and much more!
The ’Burbs
Directed by Joe Dante (Gremlins, The Howling) and starring Tom Hanks, The ‘Burbs is a beloved cult-horror-comedy film with an amazing score by Jerry Goldsmith (Alien, Poltergeist, The Omen). Waxwork Records is excited to bring you, for the very first time on vinyl, the expanded and complete score to The ‘Burbs as a deluxe double LP featuring re-mastered audio, liner notes by director Joe Dante, new artwork, and top quality packaging.
Drag Me To Hell
Directed by Sam Raimi (Evil Dead Trilogy, Darkman) and with an incredible score composed by Christopher Young (Hellraiser, A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge), Drag Me To Hell makes it’s vinyl album debut in 2018 from Waxwork Records. Waxwork is determined to release an impressive vinyl debut of such an immense and dark film score. Expect all new artwork, re-mastered audio, top notch packaging, 180 gram colored vinyl, liner notes by composer Christopher Young, and more!
Get Out
Waxwork Records is honored to present the score to the critically acclaimed 2017 horror film Get Out. Directed by Jordan Peele and featuring a dynamic and memorable film score by Michael Abels, Get Out took the world by storm as a powerhouse film that serves as not only an incredible new horror movie, but one with a penetrating examination which addresses racism and real-life crisis among black Americans. The score, with supervision by director Peele, is expertly crafted to capture a true, ominous sense of suspense and unease. Swahili chanting, bowed strings, and thrills throughout.
