![]() It really brought the whole thing down, but we hung out for a bit. Dokken, though…I felt kinda bad for thinking about how bad Don sounded. ![]() We went specifically to see Pretty Boy Floyd, one of my favorite bands ever, and they were opening for Dokken. DOUBLE NIGHTMARE THEME MUSIC KUTV MOVIEAnd one of the greatest movie videos to boot. But, I’m not gonna complain too much because we did get the heavy metal horror anthem to end all heavy metal horror anthems. It’s a movie that begs for an entire Dokken-provided soundtrack album. With regard to Part 3, it’s extremely frustrating that there are not more songs in Dream Warriors. DOUBLE NIGHTMARE THEME MUSIC KUTV FULL VERSIONSide note: apparently the full version of “Touch Me (All Night Long”) is almost ten fucking minutes long?! I mean, there is of course the song during the scene, but outside of the film, it’s not something I was itching to throw on my own boombox. Part 2 has some jams in it, but the music was not something that really connected to me. Sure, there’s the 213 song in the credits, but that’s about it. And I would begin to really appreciate the scoring to these movies I’d seen a ton of times.īecause I didn’t spend a ton of time paying attention to the score, I never really thought much about the music in the original 1984 Nightmare on Elm Street. I wasn’t really familiar with Goblin as an entity, but that would soon change. In fact, it was not until around 10 years or so ago that I remember watching a film for the first time and thinking, shit, this score is awesome. Certainly, I knew some themes songs were particularly badass or that John Carpenter’s scoring was specifically excellent, but otherwise…I just wanted some metal. But the score faded into the movie and was just part of the experience. So, fuck yeah.Īdmittedly, growing up I did not pay much mind to scores for the movies I watched. Once the internet was in full swing though, I learned that I’m not the only person in the world that worships Dramarama’s “Anything, Anything” and that there is a whole cult of people that do. ![]() ![]() So horror movies, and especially the tunes within the films were a personal thing for me that my friends kinda didn’t really care about. Pre-internet, say in the early 90s, there were not a ton of kids in my junior high who still cared about Nightmare on Elm Street or Freddy, and even less that still cared about Dokken. I wanted take a minute to state how much I appreciate the internet when it comes to the music from the movies we grew up watching.
