Dragon’s Domain Records presents THE JOE KRAEMER COLLECTION: VOLUME 1, featuring music composed by Joe Kraemer (THE WAY OF THE GUN, JACK REACHER, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE: ROGUE NATION) for two films from his extensive filmography, THE HITCHER II: I’VE BEEN WAITING and JOY RIDE 2: DEAD AHEAD.
Released in 2003, THE HITCHER II: I’VE BEEN WAITING was directed by Louis Morneau (BATS), written by Eric Red, Molly Meeker and Charles R. Meeker, starring C.Thomas Howell, Kari Wuhrer and Jake Busey. The film catches up with Jim Halsey (Howell) fifteen years after his horror filled trip through Texas at the hands of a psychotic drifter as chronicled in the events of the first film. After being discharged from the police force after using excessive force on a suspect, Jim decides to take a trip back to Texas with his girlfriend, Maggie (Wuhrer) to face the demons of his past and visit his old friend, Captain Estridge. On the way, the couple make the mistake of picking up another hitchhiker, Jim (Busey), who remarkably also happens to have most of his screws loose and Jim and Maggie find themselves taking part in a new cat-and-mouse tour of Texas with Jim in relentless pursuit.
Heavily affected by Kraemer’s score for THE WAY OF THE GUN, director Louis Morneau knew exactly what he wanted musically for THE HITCHER II and sought out Joe to score the film.
Released in 2008 after the surprise success of the first film, JOY RIDE 2: DEAD AHEAD was also directed by Louis Morneau, written by James Robert Johnston, Bennett Yellin and Clay Tarver, starring Nicki Aycox, Nick Zano, Laura Jordan, Kyle Schmid and Mark Gibbon as Rusty Nail. While driving to Las Vegas for the bachelor party of her sister Melissa (Aycox) and her fiance Bobby (Zano), Kayla (Jordan) stops the car at a gas station to meet her date, Nik (Schmid). Nik convinces her to take the car down a back road and the car breaks down. They find a house in the middle of nowhere and decide to take the car parked in the garage to the nearest city and return the car later. Melissa leaves her cell phone number. Along the way, the car is damaged because of Nik’s stupidity and they plan to rent a car and return to the house to pay for the damages to the car. Unknown to them, the owner of the house is the psychotic Rusty Nail and the friends realize they are going to have to pay a much higher price than expected for what they did...

ジョー・クレーマー（『誘拐犯』、『アウトロー』、『ミッション：インポッシブル／ローグ・ネイション』）の幅広いフィルモグラフィーの中から、『ヒッチャーＩＩ 心臓“完全”停止』と『ロードキラー マッドチェイス』の2作品のオリジナル・サウンドトラックを収録した『THE JOE KRAEMER COLLECTION: VOLUME 1』がリリース！
トラックリスト2003年公開の『ヒッチャーＩＩ 心臓“完全”停止』は、『ＢＡＴＳ 蝙蝠地獄』のルイ・モルノー監督、エリック・レッド、モリー・ミーカー、チャールズ・R・ミーカー脚本、C・トーマス・ハウエル、カリ・ウーラー、ジェイク・ビジー主演。前作でサイコな流れ者の手にかかり、恐怖に満ちたテキサスを旅したジム・ハルジー（ハウエル）の15年後を描く。容疑者に過剰な暴力をふるい、警察を除隊したジムは、ガールフレンドのマギー（ウーア）とテキサスに戻り、過去の悪魔と向き合い、旧友のエストリッジ警部を訪ねることにする。途中、ふたりはヒッチハイカーのジム（ビジー）を拾うというミスを犯すが、そのジムもまた、驚くことにほとんどのネジが緩んでおり、ジムとマギーは、ジムの執拗な追跡を受けながら、テキサスで新たな猫とネズミの旅に参加することになる。
ルイス・モルノー監督は、『誘拐犯』のクレーマーのスコアに多大な影響を受け、『ヒッチャーＩＩ 心臓“完全”停止』に求める音楽性を正確に把握していたため、ジョーにスコアを依頼した。
前作が大成功を収め、2008年に公開された『ロードキラー マッドチェイス』もルイ・モルノー監督、ジェームズ・ロバート・ジョンストン、ベネット・イェリン、クレイ・ターヴァー脚本、ニッキ・アイコックス、ニック・ザノ、ローラ・ジョーダン、カイル・シュミッド、マーク・ギボン（ラスティ・ネイル役）出演。妹のメリッサ（アイコックス）と婚約者のボビー（ザノ）のバチェラー・パーティーのためにラスベガスへ車を走らせていたケイラ（ジョーダン）は、デートの相手であるニック（シュミド）に会うため、ガソリンスタンドで車を止める。ニックは彼女を説得して裏道を走らせるが、車は故障してしまう。二人は人里離れた一軒家を見つけ、ガレージに停めてあった車で近くの街まで行き、後で車を返すことにする。メリッサは携帯電話の番号を残していく。その途中、ニックの愚かさのせいで車は破損し、二人はレンタカーを借りて家に戻り、車の損害賠償金を払うつもりだった。彼らの知らないところで、その家の持ち主はサイコ野郎のラスティ・ネイルだった。友人たちは、自分たちがしたことの代償として、予想以上に高い代償を払わなければならないことに気づく...。
