The Misfits - "Halloween" & "Halloween II"

It's already the week of Halloween and I still haven't posted anything from The Misfits!?

John Carpenter & Alan Howarth - "Halloween II" Soundtrack

While I think the general consensus is that the 1981 sequel pales in comparison to the original (outside of that insane Ben Tramer scene, of course), Halloween II really shines with its soundtrack. The duo of Carpenter and Alan Howarth take the original film's iconic sparse piano notes and give them an updated synthesizer reconstruction, creating a deeper, more menacing sound. And the use of The Chordettes' classic Mr. Sandman track adds the prefect unsettling kiss at the end of an exceptional horror soundtrack.

"Nightmare Isn't Over" (Halloween II Rework by Le Matos)

Here's a cool new rework of John Carpenter's iconic 1981 horror theme song. The track is still available for FREE on Le Matos' bandcamp page!

Happy Halloween!
