Record Store Day: Five Exclusive Horror OSTs to Pick Up Tomorrow!
In 2022, there is only one Record Store Day, and it takes place tomorrow, April 23. The annual celebration of bands, beer, fun, and all things record store-related brings a slew of special vinyl releases, limited editions, and Record Store Day exclusives. That includes highly coveted OSTs for the horror fan.
The caveat to Record Store Day exclusives is that you cannot order them online; you physically must purchase in person and support your local participating record store.
Because there are hundreds of unique releases, we’ve narrowed them down to the horror movie-specific releases you won’t want to miss.
These five horror OSTs deliver the perfect blend of gorgeous limited vinyl with earworm music.
May – Jammes Luckett
Terror Vision brings not one but two RSD exclusives this year, and you won’t want to miss out on either. Luckett’s music comes packaged with liner notes by May director Lucky McKee and Luckett, with art by Vanessa McKee. It’s a stunner. Terror Vision will also offer LTD cassettes and submit their RSD releases online if and when available. Head to their site and sign up for their mailing list to get notified.
Strange Behavior – Tangerine Dream
Two words: Tangerine Dream. The first-ever release of this legendary Tangerine Dream score from 1981, also known as Dead Kids. It’s never been available in any format until now! As with May, Terror Vision will also offer LTD cassettes and offer their RSD releases online if and when available. Head to their site and sign up for their mailing list to get notified.
Dead by Daylight V2 – Michel F April
The second volume soundtrack to the popular multiplayer survival horror game becomes available in limited edition vinyl format. It makes sense, considering the first volume served as a 2021 RSD release—a special release for fans of the award-winning video game.
Blue Velvet – Angelo Badalamenti
The long available single LP has been expanded by 60 minutes to a 2 LP Deluxe Edition with the addition of the famous 1963 recording of “Blue Velvet,” performed by Bobby Vinton, and previously unreleased film cues, alternates, and outtakes entitled “Lumberton Firewood.” The liner notes by Tim Greiving include new interviews with David Lynch, Angelo Badalamenti, Kyle MacLachlan, and producer Fred Caruso. It’s all housed in gorgeous packaging with blue swirl vinyl.
Mimic – Marco Beltrami
Mimic is the second film composed by Marco Beltrami, fresh off scoring Scream. Available for the first time on vinyl, the soundtrack features new, original artwork and a triptych jacket design which displays the creature’s multiple faces—pressed on green vinyl.
The Lost Boys: A New Musical officially kicked off on Broadway last month, and Deadline now reports that the show’s Broadway run has been extended into next year.
The show was originally set to run through November, but Deadline reports that The Lost Boys: A New Musical “has released a block of tickets through Sunday, March 7, 2027.”
The news comes in the wake of The Lost Boys: A New Musical becoming the most Tony-nominated musical of the season with twelve nominations including Best Musical.
Additionally, “The Lost Boys will launch a North American National Tour in Spring 2028, at Playhouse Square in Cleveland. Additional cities and tour dates will be announced later.”
The Lost Boys: A New Musical is of course an adaptation of the 1987 horror classic from director Joel Schumacher, with the cast including Ali Louis Bourzgui as lead vampire David (originally played by Kiefer Sutherland), Maria Wirries as Star (originally played by Jami Gertz), and LJ Benet as the soon-to-be-turned Michael (originally played by Jason Patric).
The horror musical’s cast also includes Shoshana Bean as Lucy Emerson, Benjamin Pajak as Sam Emerson, Paul Alexander Nolan as Max, Jennifer Duka as Alan Frog, Miguel Gil as Edgar Frog, Brian Flores as Marko, Sean Grandillo as Dwayne, and Dean Maupin as Paul.
The Lost Boys: A New Musical is Directed by Michael Arden, featuring Music and Lyrics by The Rescues, Book by David Hornsby & Chris Hoch, Story by James Jeremias & Janice Fischer, and Produced by James Carpinello, Marcus Chait & Patrick Wilson (The Conjuring) by special arrangement with Warner Bros. Theatre Ventures.
When a mother and her two teenage sons move to Santa Carla in desperate need of a fresh start, they soon uncover the darker side of this sunny coastal community. While Lucy tries to piece her family’s life back together, Michael keeps pulling away in search of belonging.
As he finds connection with a local rock band and its charismatic leader, his younger brother Sam comes face-to-face with a terrifying reality: When night falls, Michael’s new friends are even more dangerous than they first appeared.
Joel Schumacher directed the original The Lost Boys vampire movie in 1987, wherein two brothers move to a new town and discover that the area is a haven for vampires.
