WRWTFWW Records is proud to announce the first ever release of the long-lost original motion
picture soundtrack from the 1988 cult horror comedy sensation Ghoulies II by the incomparable
Fuzzbee Morse. Digging deep to uncover a true gem of the VHS era, this limited-edition vinyl release
(500 copies worldwide) marks history in the making as a piece of film score lore is resurrected from
the depths of oblivion. The LP is packed with 39 tracks and features an exclusive artwork by French
illustrator Pierre Thyss, as well an obi and composer notes.
The captivating melodies that once played hauntingly in the background of Ghoulies II were long
believed to be lost forever. It took over 30 years and Fuzzbee Morse's unwavering determination to dig
out the legendary recordings - and restore them for full audio pleasure!
The superb soundscape of Ghoulies II perfectly captures the chilling and wacky essence of the cult
movie, as well as its creepy carnival setting. Morse, citing influences such as Bernard Hermann,
Frank Zappa, and Igor Stravinsky, flexes his multi-instrumentalist skills, flowing with ease between
magical fairground elements (with brilliant use of calliope, tuba, flutes and sparkly sounding
synthesizers), dark atmospheres and frightening attacks (tribal percussion, strings, along with
dissonant, atonal gongs, bowed cymbals), and goofy moods (bassoon, bass clarinet, glockenspiel,
trumpet, clarinet). It's big cinematic horror movie music with a lighter comedic touch - the 80s live
again!
To complete this collector's edition, French illustrator Pierre Thyss (the man behind the WRWTFWW
Records logo) lends his (immense) talent to provide awe-inspiring visuals that flawlessly encapsulate
the juxtaposition of horror and comedy.
Ghoulies II follows the release of the full uncut soundtrack of Ghoulies (1985) which was released on
vinyl for the first time ever by WRWTFWW Records in 2020 alongside soundtracks for other Richard
Band-composed, Empire Pictures-produced classics: TerrorVision
