Chuck Cirino - Dinosaur Island (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) '2021

Tracks list

Dragon’s Domain Records, presents the original motion picture soundtrack
to DINOSAUR ISLAND. This album features the music composed by Chuck Cirino for
the fantasy-comedy about a group of soldiers stranded on a remote island
occupied by scantily-clad amazons and hungry dinosaurs.

The 1994 film was directed by Jim Wynorski and Fred Olen Ray, financed by Roger
Corman, and distributed straight to video by New World Home Video. “The
film got made because Roger had some dinosaurs left over from CARNOSAUR,”
said Fred Olen Ray. “I think the lure to re-use these things he’d
already paid for was too much to resist.”

Composer Chuck Cirino rejoined the directors after scoring numerous films for
them individually. Restrained to create a score on then state-of-the-art
synthesizers by the film’s low budget, Cirino merged the musical
influences of Bernard Herrmann, Elmer Bernstein, Ennio Morricone, and ‘60s
exotica with his own stylistic savvy to create a compelling and exciting score
that, for the most part, played straight man to the film’s stimulating
slapstick. “This score is a little more special to me than the other
scores of that era because Jim and Fred were doing it together. I knew this was
going to be an interesting movie because they were making a giant dinosaur movie
with limited funding. This was their answer to JURASSIC PARK, so I wanted the
score to be huge!” 

Dragon’s Domain Records is excited to bring the soundtrack from DINOSAUR
ISLAND to compact disc for the first time, mastered by James Nelson at Digital
Outland with exclusive liner notes by author Randall Larson, with the
participation of the composer and the directors.
