One Way Static Brings You The ‘Mark Of The Devil’ On Vinyl
One Way Static has opened up pre-orders for their next title, which is a dual release for the soundtracks to Mark Of The Devil (aka Hexen) and Mark Of The Devil II.
The first film, which was directed by Michael Armstrong, was released in 1970 and known to horror fans for being the first movie to receive the notorious ‘V’ for violence certificate. Vomit bags were also given to the audience upon admission. The soundtrack was composed by Michael Holm (Cusco) and the theme “Liebesthema” was used in 2011’s Hobo With A Shotgun.
The soundtrack to Mark Of The Devil II was composed by Don Banks, John Scott and Sam Sklair. Banks is known for his scores to Hammer films such as The Evil Of Frankenstein and The Mummy’s Shroud.
Mark Of The Devil is being released in its original mono recording while Mark Of The Devil II comes in stereo.
