Sword-fighting, vampire-slaying and gothic atmosphere in a gleeful genre mash-up - Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter is one of the most gloriously bombastic films in the Hammer canon, and its score matches it, beat for outrageous beat. Released on vinyl for the very first time anywhere in the world, this double-disc LP features nearly 55 minutes of a rousing, swashbuckling score that was synchronised against Clemens’s visuals by Hammer’s music supervisor Phil Martell.

By August 1972, legendary composer Laurie Johnson – a close associate and friend of Clemens since they first worked together on The Avengers in the 1960s – had composed and created a rousing, swashbuckling score that was then synchronised against Clemens's visuals by Hammer's music supervisor Phil Martell.
This double-disc LP features nearly 55 minutes of Laurie Johnson's music for Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter. By turns stirring, romantic, unsettling and bombastic, this much-requested, highly-memorable score is made available here on vinyl for the first time anywhere in the world.
