Back in 2014, Howlin’ Wolf Records made a dream of mine come true when they released Richard Einhorn’s score for the 1977 film Shock Waves on CD. Since I had seen the film more than a couple of times, I have always loved the weird and strange electronic score that Einhorn came up with, so I was thrilled and quickly ordered a copy of it. But now, even more Nazi horror has recently risen out of watery depths of terror!

Howlin’ Wolf Records have recently announced they will be releasing an expanded score of this release, almost doubling the amount from the original release. The one from 2014 was 31:31 minutes long, but this new release is 61:22 minutes long! It includes newly discovered tracks and bonus features, remastered from the composer’s personal 7.5 IPS master tapes. This release also features a 16-page booklet with new cover art by Austin Hinderliter, liner notes by Benjamin Chee, Ian Zapczynski, and an anecdote from composer Einhorn. Priced at only $17.95.

You can pre-order your copy, due to be released early next month, at Screen Archive Entertainment, by clicking HERE, or directly from Howlin’ Wolf Records, by clicking HERE.

I’m always excited when someone decides to release the soundtrack from a film that you wouldn’t expect to ever see happen. Well thanks to Howling Wolf Records, you will now have the chance to get a release of the 1981 slasher film The Prowler!

With the flood of slasher films coming out in the wake of Friday the 13th, Joseph Zito’s film about a revenge killer is one of the better ones, especially due to Tom Savini’s makeup effects. But Richard Einhorn’s score also helped. And now for the first time, the complete score will be available on CD, with over an hour’s worth of music! It has been assembled and masters for CD from the 15 ips master tape, and will contain 35 tracks, liner notes by Ian Zapczynski, and a 16-page full color booklet.
