John Carpenter’s 2018 Halloween Soundtrack Gets Expanded 2-LP Edition

The soundtrack for Danny McBride and David Gordon Green’s brilliant 2018 reimagining of John Carpenter’s 1978 slasher classic Halloween is already getting a limited edition vinyl reissue. Just as he did for the original film, Carpenter composed the soundtrack, which includes reworked versions of the classic score, but this time around he collaborated with his son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies.

Halloween: Expanded Edition provides 24 more music cues from the film resulting in 28 additional minutes of music packaged in a deluxe double LP format. According to the press release, the reissue features new artwork “and lavish packaging, including an optical-illusion lenticular sleeve that makes the flames around Michael Myers’s mask dance when you slide it off the record jacket.”

Sacred Bones released a trailer for the expanded reissue, which drops on October 18 and can be pre-ordered here.
