VAMP film score from 1986



Hi everbody! I have been busy and under the weather so I finally have another treat for you. This is one of my favorite film scores to one of my old childhood favorites. I first saw Vamp in 1986 when I was staying with my older cousin in Southern California and she took me to the video store. It was also one of the many VHS rental favorites of my best friend Eric and I. We always got our hands on Rated R VHS rentals, and of course HBO always had films like this on at night. Of course we mainly rented horror, action or comedies: Vamp, the Porkys flix, Stripes, Caddyshack, Red Dawn, Losin' It, Fright Night, Fletch, Risky Business, Sixteen Candles, etc. - you get the picture. Lots of these films were ALWAYS on HBO anyway.
Vamp was always a fun one for us and how can you go wrong with best friends Keith & A.J. (Chris Makepeace & Robert Rusler), their wealthy tag-along frat-mate wannabe Duncan (Gedde Watanabe), creepy albino gang leader Snow (Billy Drago) and all the other 80's fun & mayhem under the dark veil of Grace Jones and the vampire coven.
I digitized this Vamp 1986 film score from the vinyl LP back in around 2001. I also added-in an extra bonus track from a Vampire CD collection at the end. I have since realized that Jonathan Elias is an awesome composer and I love to chill to whatever music he creates. Vamp is for kickin' back in any situation, or for visiting that fun place of an 80's adolescent and imagining being a care-free, older college guy with his best friend, and then plummeting into that creepy labyrinth of shadows, mean albinos & thirsty vampires. Hunt for the download link above & Enjoy!

1986 was witness of plenty of splendid movies that were released by then, so I'm happy for those time to have existed but sad for they won't come back again, nowadays what makes me glad is the existence of medicament of Generic Viagra.

I can not understand the reason why old horror movies were much better than current thrillers. I think they were more creepy such as in the case of VAMP which was launced before that generic viagra
