The Running Man/Harold Faltermeyer

This is the out of print Varese Sarabande release of "The Running Man".

This is one of my personal favorite "Ahnuld" films from the 80's. It's got everything. Action, one-liners, blood & guts, and women with wacked-out 80's hair-do's.

I have to say that for the most part, this score delivers the 80's synthesized goods. It has a very memorable main theme too.

"Get in the mood for the Faltermeyer dude"... haha... I made a funny 80's action one liner. Ha... haha... meh....

The 'Burbs DELUXE Editon/Jerry Goldsmith

Well well, kiddies. Look what I have for you here...

The 'Burbs was originally released as a 13 track soundtrack through the Varese Sarabande's membership club. Then it was released so many years later in a 33 Track Deluxe edition again only through the membership club.

If you are in any way shape or form a Goldsmith fan then this is a MUST I tell you. MUST!
It's got everything. Gothic organs, a nod to Ennio Moriconne's "Once Upon A Time In The West" and even synthesized doggy barks.

You don't have to be a member of the Junkyard to acquire this out of print score. Just send comments my way and let me know how you're enjoying my Sanctuary.

The Entity Bootleg/Charles Bernstein

This is one of those movies that almost physically scared the shit out of me. I remember the first time seeing it by myself in the dark at home while my parents had gone to the beach for some alone time.

The music added a particular synthesized tension and foreboding that was entirely unexceptable to be subjected to if one were supposed to get some sleep afterward. So after watching this movie I walked to the bathroom and while washing my hands the shampoo bottle in the shower fell down and at 4 in the morning this sounded like a bulldozer crashing into the house. I did jump into the air. I remember that.

Never had and never will my heart beat so fast.

Well here is a decent sounding bootleg of the score. This is a near impossible find, so be sure to hold on to this one once you have it. Don't listen to it late at night and alone... trust me.

The tracks have no names there are just numbered Tracks 1-36.

Excalibur 21 Track Bootleg/Trevor Jones

This is a fantastic score. A grand mixture of classical and original score by Trevor Jones. The official LP release only contained some of the original classical pieces and no original score. Here, you get it all.

The most popular version of this bootleg soundtrack seems to be the 18 track version released in the mid-nineties. This version was created in 2001.

I stumbled upon a 27 track version of this bootleg, but the extra tracks were merely lines of dialog from the film ripped from the DVD, not extra music. What I have for you here features all of the music tracks available.

So gather knights of the round table! Enjoy... EXCALIBUR!

TRACK LISTING:

1.	Theme from Excalibur (02:50)
2.	Igrayne's Dance (02:06)

Little Shop Of Horrors EXPANDED/Miles Goodman

Consider this one of the rarest in the Junkyard. This is the complete soundtrack to the film. All the little nuances and things you remember from the original film versions of the songs are all here. Totally different from the original album release. This is a nice 2 CD set that even includes the score elements between musical numbers. Miles Goodman was always one of the most underrated of film score composers (just check out Dirty Rotten Scoundrels... oh yeah, pretty hard to find... I'll have it for you one day).

This, along with "The Nightmare Before Christmas", were my favorite musicals growing up.

The Adventures Of Rocky And Bullwinkle Promo/Mark Mothersbaugh

This is a promo release for the underrated Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle film.

It was pretty much just like the old cartoon with plenty of jabs at modern pop culture without seeming like a pop culture reference movie. It was definitely for the fans.

Everyone else just won't get it.

It's a great bombastic action score that also uses a lot of the classic cartoon "mickey mousing" techniques by the great Mark Mothersbaugh.

TRACK LISTING:
1. Logo & Opening Titles (00:30)
2. Hard Times in Frostbite Falls (00:51)
3. Rocky the Flying Squirrel (00:34)

10. Boris and Natasha (00:52)
11. The Bitter End (01:17)
12. Zombified People / Big Action (02:20)
13. Implausibly Coincidental (00:50)
14. Chase on the Runway / Hang On! (03:17)
15. Hail, Hail Pottsylvania (00:44)

Misery/Marc Shaiman

So, yesterday I went to go see The Collector (very good American made torture porn by the way if you're into that kind of thing) I decided to pop this score in on the way there. This CD was over by the time I got back home and the theater isn't that far away.

It's a short 6 track album with a lot of subtlety.

It's a good score. Solid. No complaints. Don't be expecting to find anything all that hummable but the score is tense and especially effective with the imagery of the movie.

TRACK LISTING:
1. Number One Fan
2. She Can't Be Dead
3. Open House
4. Go To Your Room
5. Buster's Last Stand
6. Misery's Return

Event Horizon/Michael Kamen/Orbital

Okay so this is probably the best Science Fiction/Horror hybrid since "Alien". No. I'm not kidding.

There's a lot of argument over Pal W.S. Anderson's films but most will agree that this is his magnum opus.

The score by Kamen is effective and adds to the tension that's prominent throughout the film. The soundtrack album actually takes his score and remixes them in a weird way. This would typically sound like blaspheme but I really don't mind it. Not here anyway.

Don't get me wrong, I would like to have the entire untouched score but what Orbital did here is really awesome. It's got those dancey elements ya know? But I really wouldn't want to dance to this. The remix work compliments Michael Kamen's work. The score is definitely there, it's just being put to a paticular dance rythm at times.

I really must suggest this soundtrack for download. Immediately.

Listen.... because.... where we're going... we won't need eyes to see...

A Return To Salem's Lot Main Theme/Michael Minard

Being that there isn't even a DVD for this film to rip any music from, I stumbled upon this one track and did a bit o' mastering.
Shame... this is one of horror's most untalked about entries. I really liked it though. Very tongue in cheek. Just do a search on ebay and you will find almost NOTHING. Big big shame.

Enjoy this mild offering from the Junkyard.

Jurassic Park III 28 Track Promo/Don Davis

This is the promo score to Jurassic Park III around Academy time. I suppose I'm not as cranky as some movie goers 'cause I liked this movie. It's got Sam Neill and Dinos running around an island. It's not all that believable but I didn't find it all that abysmal. It's fun, fun, fun!

Don Davis is a fantastic composer and I believeable he did one of those rare good jobs of incorporating John Williams trademarks while incorporating his own sound. I remember spending around $20 on this score back in 2001. I got a 16 track CD including Randy Newman's "No Hat, No Cattle". So why the hell didn't I receive this 28 track complete score that came out months later? No, seriously. What is the big deal? Why can't I just receive the full score when I buy the soundtrack?

Well folks, here you are.

1. "Isla Sorna Sailing Situation" - [4:22]
