Ronald Stein’s SPIDER BABY Crawls Into Vinyl in Rob Zombie’s Specially Curated Horror Soundtrack Line
Rob Zombie and Waxwork Records have released the second vinyl album in their exclusive, curated line of classic Horror movie soundtracks. “Rob Zombie Presents” features several never-before-released film soundtracks that were personally selected by the singer, songwriter, and filmmaker. The first album was WHITE ZOMBIE, the classic 1932 zombie movie featuring Bela Lugosi (see here) and “scored” via bits & pieces of classical and then-modern music in the public domain).
Their second vinyl release is now shipping: “Rob Zombie Presents SPIDER BABY” featuring the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack by B-movie maestro Ronald Stein (VOYAGE TO THE PREHISTORIC PLANET, THE HAUNTED PALACE, DEMENTIA 13, THE TERROR, THE PREMATURE BURIAL).
Directed by Jack Hill and starring Lon Chaney Jr., Jill Banner, Beverly Washburn, and Sid Haig, 1967’s SPIDER BABY was originally released to near obscurity but has achieved a cult following for its originality, dark humor, and twisted storyline of a dysfunctional family of mentally regressive orphaned siblings with homicidal tendencies, one of which has a disturbing predilection for large spiders.
This deluxe album includes Stein’s complete soundtrack for the first time on vinyl, an exclusive interview by Rob Zombie with director Jack Hill and SPIDER BABY actress Beverly Washburn, 180 gram Blue & Green Marbled colored vinyl, new artwork by Graham Humphreys, deluxe old style tip-on gatefold packaging, a 12×12 booklet featuring photos from director Jack Hill’s personal archive, a 12×12 art insert, and more! This deluxe album includes the complete soundtrack by Ronald Stein for the first time… featuring an exclusive interview by Rob Zombie with Director Jack Hill & Actress Beverly Washburn.
