I was supposed to be helping a friend move today. I’m super broke and am actively saving for a house so a nice day of physical labor and no free time to spend money sounded pretty good. Unfortunately the moving thing got cancelled so instead I remembered that credit cards existed and went down to Waterloo Records and OMG LOOK AT THESE SOUNDTRACKS I BOUGHT!!!
Trick ‘r Treat is probably my favorite Halloween movie (read my tribute I wrote last year) so there was no way I was leaving that store without this gorgeous piece of wax. I also LOVE anything Universal Monsters, so the Phantom of the Opera soundtrack was also a no-brainer. Let’s take a closer look…
Francesco Francavilla did the artwork for this. He also does some work for Marvel as well as the Afterlife with Archie books. He’s great.
Not only is the entire movie soundtrack here but the D side is one of those Halloween spooky sound deals. Yes!
The vinyl is on beautiful orange wax and I was surprised to find a super cool bonus poster!
The Phantom record is not quite as elaborate but equally as purdy. I didn’t realize it at the time but this is not the original score. It’s a rendition by a band from Liverpool called The Laze. I look forward to checking it out.
So there you go! I spent way too much money but I don’t regret it. Have a good weekend everybody!
