I love the score to the Burning and like scojo stated the murder scenes are great but when it comes to the story I much prefer Madman. I believe both movies were in production at the same time and were both based on the lore of Croppy. image.jpg

100% Madman is superior

I actually have a nice little list of slashers with unreleased scores, mostly more obscure/smaller titles so might be some you’re not aware of Pete. I will dig it out and share.

Off the top of my head: The Mutilator, Just Before Dawn, Without Warning, Hell Night, Blood Rage, Butcher Baker Nightmare Maker, Eyes of a Stranger, The Final Terror, The Slayer, Night School, The Initiation, to name a few…

Great spins guys

That’s a great list just from the top of your head, I was also thinking about Hell Night. Was The Prey ever released?

I love slashers i own Seven of those movies, watched eight of them but I’ll be honest can’t say I’ve heard of Without Warning. I think I have some sleuthing to do. The one on that list that to me I want to watch but for some reason still have not is Just Before Dawn.

Right back at you @dollar. Two of my favourite more modern scores

Without Warning is a super cheapo backwoods survival slasher/alien hunters flick - sortof a precursor to Predator! The neat score is by Dan (Carpenter/The Fog) Wyman - I played tracks from it on a recent ep of the TonyScott pod :)

The Prey is unreleased.

An obscure one which did get an OG album release is Final Exam, but not very exciting imo… both film and score are pretty dull. Unlike JBDawn which is terrific, and you know that one has a nice Brad Fiedel ost?

Deaf so many vibes just seeing those two together...happy memories

[Dollarhyde]

@pete I really need to see/listen to April fools Day.

@deaf may have to pull out SPM too.

Halloween

[ChrisMcQueen007]

Strong run of slasher scores going on here right now!
I would throw in Don‘t go in the house into the mix - really nice WW release. However, don’t exactly feel like spinning that one on this evening, as similar to Maniac it succeeds in taking you to some dark places…
And @ScoJo: Agree that Final Exam for sure isn‘t a top tier slasher (yeah, it‘s dull), the score is solid though, me thinks. Maybe worth giving it another chance?

And damn, Just Before Dawn is fantastic (perfect example of how the music can elevate the movie to another level), haven‘t given up the hope that someone finds the tapes someday even if it seems unlikely.

I want Just Before Dawn on vinyl so bad. It's one of my favorite slashers.

I unfortunately haven't had time to spin anything the last two days :(

Not a good start to the season.

Final Exam has been on my radar for a while now but yeah the movie is a little underwhelming but it’s an OG slasher soundtrack I’ll probably pick it up at some point.

I’ve been looking for more Fiedel lately I’m shocked I didn’t know this. Damn.

In a weird turn of events I had some running around today and decided to stop into a Used music/movie store and ….it must of been fate. How could I say no?

I got my movies sorted for tonight.

Butcher Baker is a wild ride

[CrossedPete]

@pete I really need to see/listen to April fools Day.

The score is great, more Bernstein synth greatness. As for the actual movie it’s worth checking out for sure. I will say that there are better Slasher movies out there but it has its moments. I’ll be reaching for the soundtrack more than putting on the movie that’s for sure.
