Cannibal Holocaust

original motion picture soundtrack by Riz Ortolani

Format: LP

Record Label: Mondo/Grindhouse Releasing

Condition: New (I opened this copy carefully along the seam to check the color of the vinyl, but left the plastic shrink wrap intact otherwise. I took pictures of the vinyl and insert, which you can see above. I put it in a plastic sleeve and separated the record to prevent seam splits during shipping)

* High quality reissue - 180 gram "green inferno" vinyl - remastered - housed in a deluxe gatefold jacket featuring original artwork by Jock - also includes a 12" sized insert/art print by Graham Humphreys
* Riz Ortolani’s incredible score for the brutal film Cannibal Holocaust, available for the first time ever on vinyl. The score is distinct when paired with the film, as it is very untraditional for any horror film. Alone, it is powerful, haunting and beautiful.
* Considered one of the most notorious films ever released and banned in over 50 countries for many years, Ruggero Deodato's most brutal film (and surely one of the first "found footage" films) still retains the power to shock to this day, it charts a team of documentary filmmakers as they go deep into the jungle to find and film the indigenous tribes of the area.
* One thing that always stuck out like a sore thumb when viewing Cannibal Holocaust was Riz Ortolani's score, which is beautifully composed, and recorded, offering a mix of traditional orchestration and early synth work. As a stand alone piece of music it's staggering and I honestly think that if Cannibal Holocaust had a more traditional horror score it would be even more uncomfortable to sit through. As it stands, Maestro Ortolani's score offers some respite from the violence onscreen and the juxtaposition between the sights onscreen and musical soundtrack have in my opinion never been bettered.
