Waxwork Records presents the official vinyl release of the Bride of Frankenstein Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, featuring Franz Waxman's iconic 1935 score. This deluxe edition delivers remastered audio sourced directly from the original master acetates held in the composer's archives at Syracuse University and original masters from Universal Pictures. New artwork by Phantom City Creative, a 12"x12" booklet with original scoring session photography, and liner notes by restoration engineer Mike Matessino round out the package. Likeness approvals from Elsa Lanchester's estate are included. This marks the first time Waxman's complete film music has been available on vinyl.
Directed by James Whale and starring Boris Karloff and Elsa Lanchester, Bride of Frankenstein (1935) is widely considered one of the greatest sequels in cinematic history and a landmark of the horror genre. In 1998, the Library of Congress selected it for the National Film Registry, citing its cultural, historical, and aesthetic significance.
