john carpenter: prince of darkness

We are very happy to be continuing our series of John Carpenter / Alan Howarth re-issues with Prince of Darkness. This is undoubtedly one of Carpenters darkest and most underrated films and the score complements the images perfectly. In fact, this has to be one of the most understated, atmospheric and downright scary soundtracks ever made. Carpenter and Howarth keep it simple with oodles of tension. Listen to this late at night in the dark and you won't be going to sleep anytime soon! Music composed and performed by John Carpenter in association with Alan Howarth. Produced and re-mastered by Alan Howarth. Exclusive new cover art by Sam Smith (responsible for some of our favourite Criterion artwork including Hausu and World on a Wire). Comes with an A2 poster. Sleeve notes provided by Alan Howarth and Sam Smith
