CAM Sugar is delighted to present a new chapter in its Morricone Segreto series, dedicated to the hidden and most daring works of Maestro Ennio Morricone. With Autostop Rosso Sangue (Hitch-Hike, 1977), Morricone composed one of his most fascinating and unconventional scores, written for the psychological road thriller directed by Pasquale Festa Campanile and starring Franco Nero, Corinne Clery and David Hess.
Vinyl and CD edition are now in preorder with shippings from October 30th.
Shot across the wild landscapes of Abruzzo (Italy) but set along the imaginary highways of California, the film follows a couple's descent into fear and violence after picking up a dangerous hitchhiker. A unique entry in Festa Campanile's filmography, it stands out for its dark and radical tone, far removed from the comedies that made the director famous.
Morricone's music mirrors this psychological tension: pieces such as Autostop and Sunshine open with melodic, almost carefree themes that evoke freedom and lightness, only to be disrupted by obsessive repetitions and unsettling harmonies. Tracks like Violazione violenta and Nevrosi sulle strade delve into the film's more disturbing moods through dissonances, percussive tension and silence. Meanwhile, lyrical moments such as Ultima occasione and Altri tempi add a fragile, melancholy beauty to the score's emotional contrasts.
This 2026 edition, the first reissue since 1977, features a meticulous restoration from the original master tapes and a new high-definition remaster that brings out the full dynamic range and timbral complexity of the recording, highlighting Morricone's unparalleled ability to translate inner turmoil into sound.
Autostop Rosso Sangue stands as both a tribute to Morricone's boundless creativity and an invitation to rediscover one of the most haunting cult films of 1970s Italian cinema. An edition that aims not only to be a tribute to Ennio Morricone, but also an opportunity to rediscover a controversial and cult film of 1970s Italian cinema. With this release, Cam Sugar confirms its commitment to the promotion of musical heritage linked to cinema, offering enthusiasts and collectors a reference work capable of restoring the power and relevance of a timeless sonic masterpiece.

CAM Sugarは、巨匠エンニオ・モリコーネの隠れた、そして最も手厳しい・大胆な作品群に光を当てる「モリコーネ・セグレト（Morricone Segreto）」シリーズの最新章を発表できることを大変嬉しく思います。パスクワーレ・フェスタ・カンパニーレ監督が手掛け、フランコ・ネロ、コリンヌ・クレリー、デヴィッド・ヘスが出演した心理ロード・スリラー『ヒッチハイク』（原題：Autostop Rosso Sangue、1977年）のために、モリコーネは自身の中でも最も魅力的な異色作（型破りなスコア）のひとつを作曲しました。
トラックリストイタリア・アブルッツォ州の雄大な自然で撮影されながらも、カリフォルニアの架空のハイウェイを舞台とする本作は、危険なヒッチハイカーを乗せた夫婦が恐怖と暴力の深淵へと落ちていく姿を描いています。フェスタ・カンパニーレ監督の作品群（フィルモグラフィー）の中でも独特の存在感を放つ本作は、彼を一躍有名にしたコメディ作品群とは大きく異なり、ダークでラジカルなトーンで異彩を放っています。
モリコーネの音楽はこの心理的緊張感をそのまま映し出しています。「Autostop」や「Sunshine」といった楽曲は、自由と軽やかさを連想させるメロディアスで気ままなテーマで始まりますが、執拗な反復と不穏なハーモニーによって突如として打ち砕かれます。「Violazione violenta」や「Nevrosi sulle strade」といったトラックは、ディソナンス（不協和音）、パーカッシブな緊張感、そして「静寂」を通じて、映画のより不気味な情念へと深く潜り込んでいきます。その一方で、「Ultima occasione」や「Altri tempi」のような抒情的な瞬間は、スコアの感情的なコントラストに儚くも物哀しい美しさを添えています。
1977年以来初のリリースとなるこの2026年最新エディションは、オリジナル・マスターテープからの綿密な修復と、新たなハイレゾ・リマスタリングが施されています。これにより、録音が持つダイナミックレンジと音色の複雑さが最大限に引き出され、内面の葛藤を音へと昇華させるモリコーネの比類なき才能が際立つ仕上がりとなりました。
モリコーネの無限の創造性へのオマージュであると同時に、1970年代イタリア映画を代表する特に不気味なカルト作を再発見するための招待状でもあります。本エディションは、エンニオ・モリコーネへの賛辞にとどまらず、1970年代イタリア映画の物議を醸したカルト作を改めて味わう機会を提供することを目的としています。今回のリリースを通じて、CAM Sugarは映画に紐づく音楽的遺産の継承・発信に対する揺るぎない姿勢を改めて示し、愛好家やコレクターへ向けて、この時代を超越した音の名作が持つ力と今日性を現代に蘇らせた決定版（リファレンス・ワーク）をお届けします。
