INTRADA Special Collection。H・R・ギーガーをクリーチャー・デザインに迎えた、スティーブン・スピルバーグ製作の大ヒットホラー大作『ポルターガイスト』の第2弾。音楽は前作同様、映画音楽の巨匠、ジェリー・ゴールドスミスが担当。今回は最長3枚組の完全盤になって再発売!フルスコアをデジタルミックスとアナログミックスの2ヴァージョンを収録し、3枚目にエクストラとして、コーラスなしバージョンや別バージョンなど約62分収録。リマスター。限定盤。
Just in time for Jerry Goldsmith’s postumous receipt of coveted Hollywood Star! Intrada returns to its roots with totally remastered and expanded “specially-priced” 3-CD reissue of its own very first 1986 Goldsmith release! Oft-issued title courtesy several labels finally appears back home at Intrada, complete for the first time, including important sequences never before heard! Brian Gibson directs follow-up to wildly popular 1982 MGM fright-fest. Original cast returns with addition of Julian Beck (as evil Reverend Kane), Will Sampson (as shaman Taylor) headlining Native American storyline. Goldsmith anchors all-new score with not one but two themes associated with Taylor: first is lean, sinewy idea over sparse open chords, second is powerful, major-key theme typically heard in French horns, trumpet. For portions of film dealing with evil Kane, Goldsmith introduces dynamic satanic choral writing plus chilling variants on early hymn. Exceptionally dramatic and exciting music! “Carol Anne’s Theme” makes judicious appearances then wraps entire score in gentle fashion. In its day, recording was considered state-of-the-art, utilizing then-new Sony PCM 3324 digital format. For initial 1986 release, Goldsmith and scoring mixer Bruce Botnick created pure digital two-track mixes designed for album and listening purposes. For film itself, Botnick created analog three-channel mixes, designed to balance with center channel dialog. For this definitive edition of Poltergeist II, Intrada presents both complete digital album mixes plus analog film mixes. Choose your preference. CD 3 presents array of extras including all cues scored for orchestra and chorus but sans choir. Idea is not as redundant as it may seem: Finished film itself frequently drops chorus or dials it down to near-inaudibility. Cool highlight: Being presented for the first time ever is Goldsmith’s complete initial version of the massive final confrontation, “Reaching Out/The Astral”, which features a distinctive three-part female chorus throughout the winding chordal sequences and, at one point, a solo soprano intoning her own descant. “The Astral” was Goldsmith’s own titling of the climactic, heavenly sequence where Carol Anne re-appears. For this early alternate confrontation music, besides the unique choral material, Goldsmith wrapped with a more detailed finale emphasizing a variety of colors before finishing with a very deliberate, accented trombone coda. It is all being premiered here both with and without chorus. As it turned out, both versions were dropped in post-production and Goldsmith’s now-familiar re-scored sequence was used instead. Flipper-style booklet art plus all-new liner notes chronicling entire history of this Intrada project complete this impressive Jerry Goldsmith presentation. Arthur Morton orchestrates, Jerry Goldsmith conducts. Intrada Special Collection 3-CD set available while quantities and interest remain!

トラックリスト前作で悪霊を退けたフリーリング家が、祖母の屋敷に移った。しかし一家の娘、キャロルアンに再び悪霊の恐怖が……。SFXを駆使したホラー・シリーズ第2弾。今回は悪霊と闘うインディアンの呪い師が登場。「エイリアン」の創造者H・R・ギーガーをクリーチャー・デザインに迎えた。
1年前に超常現象が起きた町、クエスタ・ヴェルデのフリーリング宅にやって来たインディアンのテイラー。彼はその地下深くで霊媒師のタンジーナと出会い、またそこで多くの白骨を発見、ある不安がよぎる。一方、フリーリング一家は事件以来その住まいを離れ、祖母ジェスの家で平穏な暮らしを取り戻していた。だがある日、再び超常現象が発生し、フリーリング家に取り憑き始める。子供たちを守ろうと奔走するスティーヴとダイアン。彼らを救いに来たテイラーとタンジーナによれば、旧宅にあった白骨の数々は狂信者ケイン牧師とその集団のもので、ケインが不思議な能力を持つキャロル・アンを求め続けているという。一家はケインら悪霊を完全に断ち切るため、旧宅の地下で決着に臨むのだが…。監督:ブライアン・ギブソン、出演:クレイグ・T・ネルソン、ジョベス・ウィリアムズ、ヘザー・オルーク。
