Halloween (1978)

Mondo 2xLP, 2013 John Carpenter's piano-and-synth theme is the most recognizable horror motif of its era, and Mondo's 2013 set was billed as the first complete pressing of his score on vinyl. Phantom City Creative designed the deluxe gatefold, fronted by a ghostly painted mask, and the two 180-gram discs are cut at 45 RPM, which gives that cold pulse real punch. Most copies are black; the randomly inserted orange copies are the ones collectors chase.
