THE PRIMEVALS belongs to a different time, a different place, an imagined world of monsters, myth and magic that has only ever existed within the confines of classic fantasy cinema. Even if its chief architect, David Allen, had lived and the film had been released in the 1990s, it would have still been out of synch with the zeitgeist. Seen today, it’s a truly singular experience, floating in a bubble outside and above anything else being made. Fifty years ago, filmmaker David Allen registered the story for the film that would become ‘The Primevals’. His goal was to elevate the art of stop-motion animation into more serious, thoughtful storytelling. In the mid-1960s, the film had started as an homage to Edgar Rice Burroughs, reminiscent of the fantasy films by Ray Harryhausen that had impressed David as a child. He died in 1999 and the task of completing the film fell to his visual effects colleague Chris Endicott While award winning and Emmy nominated composer Richard Band is primarily known to many as a composer for Horror and Genre films, he has often stepped well outside the horror genre and diversified his body of work demonstrating his ability to tackle any genre and style presented to him. ‘The Primevals’ represents a glorious hark back to the classic scores that fuelled so many of the Harryhausen films of the 1950s and 1960s. A delirious thrill-ride through the joys of monsters, ray-guns, spaceships and good old-fashioned stop motion animation

『ドクター・フー』の60周年記念の一環として、番組で最も有名な物語のひとつが、芸術的なカラー化を受け、この世のものとは思えないほど新しく生まれ変わりました。
トラックリスト1963年12月から1964年2月にかけて放送された「怪人ダレク」は視聴者にお目見えされ、すぐにドクターの最も手ごわい不朽の敵のひとつとなった。物語は、ターディスの最初の乗組員たちが、異星にある石化した森に降り立つところから始まる。探検を決意したドクター（ウィリアム・ハートネル）は、仲間を率いて金属都市に入るが、そこで彼らはいたるところで危険を発見し、やがて彼の最大の敵となるミュータントのデレクを発見する。
これら7つのオリジナルの25分エピソードがカラー化され、75分の超大作にまとめられている。マーク・エアーズがトリストラム・ケイリーのオリジナル音楽と新たに録音されたスコアの要素を駆使して制作した真新しいサウンドトラックで、デレックスはアップデートされ、一方でオリジナルの古典的なストーリーは1963年に始まったときと同様にスリリングなままであることを保証している。
このリリースは、デジタルでストリーミング／ダウンロードできるほか、2枚組CDとしてリリースされ、ディスク1にはコンプリート・サウンドトラックが、ディスク2にはCDフォーマットでのみ入手可能な別エディットや未使用のキューが収録されています。
