I recently decided to rewatch the Academy Award-winning masterpiece (not) SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT to get into the holiday mood. The movie is so bad that it's good! The synthesizer score by Perry Botkin Jr. fits the film but the best part of the soundtrack are the faux Christmas songs! "Slayrider", the touching "Warm Side Of The Door" and, my personal favorite, "Santa's Watching"! They are a hoot!! It would be great to have a CD of this gem to play at Christmas!

Thought you meant this limited edition one:

But then realized it's ALMOST the same title. More good fare for some seasonal horror.

I'm glad to see there are others that appreciate this classic as much as I do and really enjoyed the "GARBAGE DAY" clip!! Now I want a soundtrack CD of it more than ever!! It's a shame that there isn't one and that the film itself is hard to come buy. I was fortunate enough to buy the uncut & uncensored Anchor Bay DVD a few years ago. It's out of production and so is SNDN 2.

This has always been my go-to Christmas horror -



Black Christmas remains a classic... which eventually evolved into the director's masterpiece MURDER BY DECREE.

The original Black Christmas is excellent. However, the remake is ok, but doesn't hold a candle to the original. I wish someone would release Shirley Walker's score for the remake - that was excellent!

Death Waltz Records is releasing a limited edition VINYL version of SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT (1984). They are also doing CHRISTMAS EVIL (1980) as well. It might not be on CD, but it's finally available!



PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
STRICTLY ONE OFF PRESSING FOR CHRISTMAS 2014

LTD TO 400 WORLDWIDE

DISC 1 TRANSPARENT RED AND SOLID WHITE SPLIT COLOUR

DISC 2 TRANSPARENT RED AND TRANSPARENT GREEN SPLIT COLOUR

Disc 1 Original motion picture soundtrack by Perry Botkin

Disc 2 Original Christmas songs by Morgan Ames.

Original artwork by Nick Percival Booklet contains liner notes by composer Perry Botkin, Co-executive Producer Scott Schneid & writer Michael Hickey and also features a host of original reviews including many newspaper clips calling for the film to be banned upon its original release in 1984. Death Waltz Recording Co. may be home to some of the scariest music around, but it doesn’t mean that we don’t get into the Christmas spirit now and again. In that tradition, here’s our idea of Xmas cheer as we present the release of Perry Botkin’s jolly old score to the controversial 1984 slasher SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT. Composer Botkin is no slouch in the recording world, arranging for Bobby Darin, Harry Nilsson, & Barbra Streisand. His score is both chaotic and tragic; crashing sounds of distorted percussion are punctuated by both synth and acoustic piano, reflecting the sheer damage that has been done to Billy’s mind. The end result is both emotional and terrifying, even more so with the selection of original Christmas songs as composed by Morgan Ames that are spread amongst the film’s soundtrack. But a word of caution: If you don’t have SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT on the turntable this Christmas we’ll have to tell Billy that you’ve been… naughty. Consider yourselves warned.

discovered I missed this dream release! What a bummer! I would have ordered it
instantly if I'd known about it earlier! Still, I hope those who were able to buy the CD will really enjoy it. Should be good!

I was just able to order a copy! I checked out their site yesterday and it did state that SNDL was sold out. I'm very grateful it's back in stock. Can't wait to listen to it!

I was so disappointed when I visited the Death Waltz site on Monday and it was listed as sold out. Thanks to the "low stock alert" heads up in this forum I went back today and ordered a copy. This is a holy grail for me, yes, the score AND the cheesy Christmas songs. This will truly be the best Christmas present...to myself.
