As it was on HBO, it wasn’t subject to the same censorship as broadcast television, allowing it to far more violent, sexually explicit, and profane - a real boon to a newly gestating audience of Horror fanatics. (Hey, not every city had Mondo Kim's.) The show is hosted by \u003cstrong\u003eThe Cryptkeeper\u003c\/strong\u003e, a cackling and dreadfully punny reanimated corpse voiced by \u003cstrong\u003eJohn Kassir\u003c\/strong\u003e. (He beat out \u003cstrong\u003eMichael Winslow\u003c\/strong\u003e (“The Man of 10,000 Sound Effects”) and \u003cstrong\u003eCharles Fleischer\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eWho Framed Roger Rabbit?\u003c\/em\u003e) for the honor.) Kassir’s Cryptkeeper closes the disc out with \"The Crypt Jam\", which your author cannot come up with much of a sonic reference point besides “\u003cstrong\u003eThe KLF\u003c\/strong\u003e, but not ironic”. Either way, it’s a wacky and timely pastiche of corporate-approved hip-hop sounds of the era. The remainder of the disc is instrumental and features the iconic opening composed by \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=danny+elfman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDanny Elfman\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e in addition to incidental music by the likes of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=jan+hammer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJan Hammer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e (\u003cem\u003eMiami Vice\u003c\/em\u003e), \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=david+newman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Newman\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e (\u003cem\u003eHeathers\u003c\/em\u003e), \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=ry+cooder\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRy Cooder\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e (\u003cem\u003eCocktail\u003c\/em\u003e) and \u003cstrong\u003eSteve Bartek\u003c\/strong\u003e (of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=oingo+boingo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOingo Boingo\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSnow Day\u003c\/em\u003e). “Loved To Death” is swirling keys pushed aside by slinky horns and swathes of guitar, “Carrion Death” is 6-feet-under piano and synth washes. The large roster of composers leads to a neat variety in the music, with each track shifting through several movements, cues, or vibes.
