Black Sunday
CD (Item 587829) Kritzerland, 1961 — Condition: New Copy
The spookier side of Les Baxter – an amazing soundtrack penned for the film debut of director Mario Bava! The film was somewhat notorious in the US, but was actually from Italy – and it's got a quality that's darker than even the darkest of the Italian horror classics of the time – really creepy demonic and torture images, which seem to inspire Baxter to hit new styles he'd never touched at the time! There's definitely some echoes of Les' more familiar exotic modes, but everything is much more tense and dramatic – as if the local witch doctor had knocked over the tiki hut, and started burning all the south seas tourists at the stake. Presentation of the material here is really great – lots of bonus tracks, and notes on the film, plus spooky images too – and titles include "That's The Man/Find Her", "Katia Alone & Afriad", "Bleeding Dogs/Firey Drapes", "Kruvajan/Asa Alive", "Main Titles", and "Drinking At The Inn/Scary Woods". (Limited edition of 1000 copies.) © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
