Sudden Death (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) + The Other (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack / Deluxe Edition) CD Bundle

Sudden Death Description:
Sudden Death (1995) was the second of two Peter Hyams films starring “the muscles from Brussels,” Jean-Claude Van Damme. After 1994’s Timecop, Sudden Death was patterned on the durable “Die Hard in a…” premise: here, the contained space is Pittsburgh Civic Arena, wired to explode by terrorists at the conclusion of game seven of the Stanley Cup finals.
Sudden Death was received as an above-average action film, with strong action and suspense as well as an emotional element: fire marshal Darren McCord (Van Damme) must rescue his daughter from the terrorists, even as he fights and kills their underlings—and saves a game-winning goal on the ice.
Peter Hyams’ directorial vision has always been to score action with percussion and raw affect, not artifice. Sudden Death was his first of his three collaborations with John Debney (followed by The Relic and End of Days), receiving a pulse-pounding, orchestral tour de force from the young composer. “John Debney understood every emotion and where they needed to be amplified,” Hyams says today. “He’s a wonderful talent, and I adored working with him.”
Sudden Death was released by Varèse Sarabande in a 9-track, half-hour program at the time of the film. This Deluxe Edition expands the program to 28 tracks and 64 minutes, with Hyams and Debney newly interviewed by Daniel Schweiger for the liner notes.

The Other Description:
One of Jerry Goldsmith’s most unusual horror projects comes to CD in complete form courtesy Varèse Sarabande’s Deluxe Edition. The Other (1972) used bucolic 1935 Connecticut to tell a truly disturbing story of twin boys with dangerous supernatural powers. Directed by Robert Mulligan (To a Kill Mockingbird) from a script and book by Tom Tryon, and costarring Uta Hagan and Diana Muldaur, the film has earned a cult reputation as a unique and affecting piece of 1970s horror.

Jerry Goldsmith tackled The Other amongst a string of oddball film and television projects during the changing tastes of the early ’70s. At the peak of his creative powers, he managed to combine the polar opposites of The Other’s tones into a perfect unity: beautiful music for the film’s nostalgic setting and childhood intimacy (with a gorgeous main theme), and dark strains for the unspeakable horrors of the story’s revelations.

Long admired as one of Goldsmith’s most offbeat horror scores—made even more mysterious by the fact that cues were dropped from the finished film—The Other was released in an extended suite by Varèse Sarabande alongside The Mephisto Waltz in 1997. This Deluxe Edition features the complete stereo score in a new audio restoration by Chris Malone with liner notes by Tim Greiving.
