Marco Beltrami’s Score For ‘Scream’ and ‘Scream 2’ Coming to Vinyl

Published

Ghostface

Anyone who has watched horror from the mid-90’s onwards knows the music of composer Marco Beltrami. That’s not a joke either. Let me run through a few titles you might have heard of: Hellboy, Blade II, Resident Evil, Dracula 2000, The Watcher, Cursed, Red Eye, The Omen, The Faculty, My Soul to Take, and that’s not even the half of it. The man is beyond prolific, having over 100 composer credits on IMDb.

But where the majority of horror fans most likely first heard him was Wes Craven’s meta slasher Scream, of which he composed the music for the whole franchise (but not the TV series). For many fans, his music was an integral part of the Scream experience and,furthermore, stood very well on its own merits. For fans of vinyl, they haven’t been able to experience the joy of the score on wax. But that’ll change on September 16th.

The folk over at Bull Moose have a listing for a vinyl pressing of the scores of Scream and Scream 2, which is going to be pressed on “bone white” vinyl. I’m guessing the marketing team didn’t think to call it “Ghostface White”?

It looks like the pressing will be 1xLP, so there might only be select cues from both films. While that’s disappointing, the cover is anything but! It captures the tone of the movie as well as highlighting the iconic killer. In the gaping mouth is a telephone dialpad while the handle of the hunting knife is the phone itself. As for the house at the bottom, you can barely see Casey’s body hanging from the tree in the front yard. Very cool!

You can see the cover below.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
