Ongoing Quests: The Little Monsters Soundtrack

Recently, I have been on a quest to find all the songs from Little Monsters. The one song that has eluded me and for the most part, every other Little Monsters fan out there is Billie Hughes' Magic of the Night. The song is a rarity because well, it was NEVER RELEASED. Along with some other songs. Beyond that song, LM has proved to have one of the more memorable collection of songs from the 80's.

Billie Hughes- I Wanna Yell

Nick Lowe- I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass

Paladeins- Let's Go

Bobby Day- Little Bitty Pretty One

Talking Heads- Road to Nowhere

The soundtrack that is on Amazon consists of David Newman's (relation to Thomas Newman???) score.


Well after months of searching, the closest I got was a downloadable file on a Little Monsters related forum. The sound is MPEG 3 Audio and it contains most of the tracks. Magic of the Night is there, but with the sound effects from the movie still in. I guess this is the closest I ever will get unless someone finds a way to extrapulate the film sounds from that track. If there's anyone out there looking for it I'll be happy to direct them to this site where I found the file.

WOW! Baseball cards. I love baseball cards!

Maybe it's in the trunk

At the age of 9, Scary Stories was a book I ended up borrowing constantly from the library & would eventually end up owning. I already had my fill of EC Comics (I'll expand later) and was looking for more short stories. Alvin Schwartz crafted some truly eerie and unnerving tales. The book was basically a compendium of tales born out of urban legends and folklore. But what left the biggest impression was Stephen Gammell's artwork. His images will creep under the skin of even the most hardened horror fan. According to wikipedia, the book is seventh most challenged 2000-2009 by the American Library Association for its religious viewpoint and violence.

While EC Comics kickstarted my love for the horror genre, Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark cemented it.

Credit card? You got it.

For all you lovers out there

Today marks 25 years since the release of Back to the Future. Now back then, mixing comedy with sci-fi was something that either falled flat on its face or worked perfectly. In BTTF's case, it was the latter. There are fews films that offer as much fun that this one does.
